VforVendetta 2,024 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 The report is BASED ON SHIPMENTS. NOT ACTUAL SALESIFPI reports sales, not shipments. I am 99% sure. They were always the ones that were reporting album sales. :huh: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaga Medicine 265 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Really happy that she SOLD 2.3 in less then 2 months!! Congrats Gaga. Now slay with your tour and cum to Brazil so I can see you for the first time (yeah I couldn't go in Sao Paulo, Rio or Porto Alegre in 2012). Does IFPI have the numbers of BTW (the album) sales?

Optimus 298 Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 IFPI reports sales, not shipments. I am 99% sure. They were always the ones that were reporting album sales. The company Vivendi released their report based on shimpents not long time ago IIRC. And ARTPOP was at 2.3M too. ARTPOP has sold 650-700k in USA and 1.1M WW(without USA). That is the real number- 1.7M WW They add 'sales' because thats the sales that the record company has made. I mean that shows how many ARTPOP copies the retailers and music store have bought from Interscope. After that the retailers and the music stores sell the album. The 1.7M are the sold copies from the retaiers and music stores to the end user Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also thought that the sales were around 1.7M WW according to mediatraffic but a guy that is tracking sales isn't nearly as reliable as IFPI company.

OBEY 57,109 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 why are people arguing over her album sales ? a reliable site (IFPI) claims she sold 2.3 million albums in 2013, yet people are saying she sold like 1.5 million because of shipments. Why does it matter? And why are people lowering her numbers ? i know that some people want to keep it real so they're a--lyzing and calculating and all that stuff, but EVERYONE in the media said ARTPOP flopped, that the numbers are bad and all that. shoudn't we ENJOY that for once a reliable website isn't "destroying" her? also, if it's shipments or not, THEY PAID for the album so technically it was sold to them, no ? that's my opinion.

Sugarfall 3,723 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 interesting... Beyonce didnt sell more than ARTPOP? wth Beyonce was released in late December so it didn't have enough time to outsell during 2013. But under a month it is quite impressive to even make it to top 10. Now Beyonce has outsold both Katy and Gaga. LOL Miley at her peak and yet nowhere to be seen.
