yeah but at least in US they're still counted as separated albums, they only get mixed up in WW charts (which is not official anyway)

[MayIAskAQuestion?]

Even if the cheat Eminem will be above them.
Recovery will be the best selling album of the year

[Alaine]

I don't think "cheat" is a fair word here, Relapse Refill got counted to Relapse sale too (although it didn't even have a proper single like Gaga's 3 smashes for TFM, but still)

No.

Sorry that's not the same case. Refill is a real reedition so people will buy this one instead of the first one because Refill got all the tracks. What gaga is doing is cheating : 2 different albums so people buy the two.

[Alaine]

^ I see your point, yeah I don't know why they counted gaga & bieber's album + ep altogether even though they have different tracks.

That's cheat, simple as that different albums are different albums.
