(1) No one buys cd's anymore. Sales have been declining every year, this year being the worst year for cd sales in history (fact)

(2) This album leaked earlier than Relapse.

(3) Relapse was his "comeback" Cd.

(4) A lot of people think its coming out tomorrow.

I think 400k is a realistic number. Hope he does a million but I don't see it happening.


OK OK OK this has to stop.

Why, oh why would 'a lot of people thinking its coming out tomorrow' hurt the first weeks sales numbers? Are you suggesting people, thinking it will come out tomorrow, will find out it came out today and be so enraged that they will no longer buy it?

There are reports that some stores don't even have it today.

Let me ask you this. What is better, 6 days of strong sales or 7 days of strong sales?

according to www.hitsdailydouble.com


INDUSTRY RECOVERY? Guess Eminem’s got his own prescription for music industry ills. His new Shady/ Aftermath/Interscope album, Recovery, which hit the streets today, is already flying off store shelves and cyberspace, according to those physical and digital retailers still taking our calls. Big question now is, can rap's bad boy top the year’s best-selling first week when it debuts at #1 a week from tomorrow? Keep checking this spot as we sift through the numbers.

Yeah, but if some stores don't have it today...

The difference between the current situation and the situation of it not getting pushed up is: 6 days of strong sales + 1 day of less strong sales vs 6 days of strong sales.

The album being pushed up 1 day can't HURT the sales, as a LOT of people have suggested over these past 2 weeks.
