Is country the most popular genre over there?certainly seems to be turning that way

[Bistnal]

All old people like it and they still buy CD's.

[Emshady2]

yeah this week bout 40-42...but NO it will not sell 40-45 k till xmas no way,by early december it will drop to as low as 30k then the sales will start increasing again cause of the grammy nominations in early december then cause of xmas time...remember this is not the 90's or early 2000's hip hop album sales dont stabilize at 40-50 k,huge country albums no days dont even stabilize at those numbers...recovery will start stabilizing at the beggining of 2011 when the sales drop after xmas and will rotate around 20 k,then it will have an increase after the grammy awards once again in febuary!

[Emshady2]

Ok then ...30-35 k stabilizing?

End of 2011 I think recovery will be at 4 million copies in us and 7 million worldwide

Good guess or not?

MORE SWIFT: With a full week in stores, the Taylor Swift sales estimates now range in the 650-700k area, which would make her album a contender to dethrone Eminem as the year’s biggest seller before 2010 is through. Her last album, Fearless, has sold more than 6 million copies in nearly two years, still moving about 6,500 a week

[slicknickshady]

Also...2 Million Shipped first week. lol. Makes me wonder how many Recovery was shipped first week. My guess Interscope didnt even ship 1,000,000 and Eminem did over 750K.

SWIFT CURRENT: The new Taylor Swift album, Speak Now, hit retail today in order to get a full seven-day count for its chart debut next Tuesday. Insiders are saying that Universal Music Group Distribution shipped around 2 million copies of the Big Machine/ Universal Republic release, which flies in the face of the current pessimistic climate at retail. Industry pundits are pointing to disappointing first-week sales by the likes of Katy Perry for retailers’ conservative attitude towards ordering product, thus deflating shipment totals across the board.

no it wont stabilize at 30-35 k it will stabilize at 20-25k....end of 2011 4 million?? yes,very possible cause it would have to sell 800k in one year but im sayin it wont,i rekon round 3.850 by 2011 year end...but it will sell 4 million eventually no worries!

[Mikey1990]

EMINEM - No Love f/Lil Wayne: 16.445 (+ 0.874)

[BILI]

It would be good if he did another thing like Refill aroung the Christmas.One more single from Recovery next month and then in December one from "refill".

[Zeek]

If he was smart thats what he would do. Im sure hes busy cave dwelling though.

[Hamza1972]

Ok then ...30-35 k stabilizing?

End of 2011 I think recovery will be at 4 million copies in us and 7 million worldwide

Good guess or not?

My prediction: 2011: 4,2 million copies in the US & 7,5 million copies ww

Some questions now.
Is Taylor Swifts Buzz bigger then Eminem was when he was gonna release Recovery?
How much is the chance now for Taylor to beat Ems first and total sales til end of year?
Hdd Predicts 650-700 k . Do you think she will do over those predections and sell over 741k?

This week possibly but shipping so much would of helped,Recovery didnt ship half that.Overall id say Recovery will do better
