Dark green again for DWUW and Dope. White for Applause

 

I would say 30k max for Amazon. I always thought 375k was accurate, but I guess I have no choice but to lower to 350k now. I wanna say BB is wrong, but I don't understand why they would pull out the random number if they didn't feel strongly about it. 

AP was at 39k on amazon like two weeks ago, the two albums above it and below it had sold 39k there actually.

you just calculate what the album under it sold

Impossible how? 30k from Amazon at 8% would put her total sales at about 280k.....which they were. lol. 

 

The difference between #40 and #50 could be very, very little. I'm assuming it is, considering how high ARTPOP jumped today. 

sis this is the third week already..  :huh:

she sold 280k first week + 92k second week ..this week it probably sell anotehr 60k or more

 

so ARTPOP is definitely more than 30k on amazon

Who knows, watch the App have so much buzz and have 2 million people downloading it first-week :rip:

You guys have to realize that buying apps is much bigger than digital music. If they see the much-hyped ARTPOP app for free they'll probably take a look if it's not too big. Everybody buys Apps, and everybody downloads songs illegally. It could help so much just from Top 10 exposure and it being free :toofunga:

Ang guys, for a normal artist it might be 8% Amazon, but for Gaga more like 12% thanks to pre-order hpe and foil.

But we have no source or idea for how many albums Amazon is selling. How can you calculate the album under it when we don't know what that number is?

Good point. So maybe 40k from Amazon? Although we still have no idea how much Amazon counted for Prism's sales. It could've been 5% for all we know. 

 

Regardless I think 350-375k is a good estimate

ARTPOP : #40 best music seller of 2013 on Amazon US.

PRISM     : #42 best music seller of 2013 on Amazon US.

 

STOP SAYING ANYHTING NEGATIVE! SO FAR ARTPOP HAS SOLD MORE THAN 60k on Amazon USA 100%

 

I predict 535k for first week. BOOKMARK THIS!

 

Also, 175 H&M stores will have ARTPOP (I guess in the spotlight) so Sales will get a real boost of it!

Yep, the album list from Amazon makes no sense. The best sellers list has albums above ARTPOP that don't make sense. Look at positions 37,38,27.

Ugh. If only the H&M deal was worldwide. It'd hit a whole new kind of cusomers that actually like Gaga's music the most but buy it illegally :giveup:

There's nothing out of the ordinary....older people buy music on Amazon, which is why albums that might have not even made the Top 100 on iTunes do well on Amazon.

When ARTPOP sells 500k+ first week we'll see who will laugh

No offense but what can possible push ARTPOP to over 500K? 400K is a more reasonable frame but I'm gonna side with BB until the HDD numbers come in.

I am honestly not worried about ARTPOP and you also shouldn't be. There are many things going on next week and some of them are major and unusual promo. Also Gaga is a strong physical album seller (physical sales rise the week of the release) and there is also the CMA effect. Also I think that BB made this prediction to actually help Gaga. A low prediction has 2 major positive sides. First it doesn't create high expectations so if she actually doesn't have very strong sales the backlash will be smaller. Secondly small predictions can be topped easily and give a lot of postive buzz to the album, making its sales feel even bigger.
