Posted October 20, 201014 yr How many copies do you think Miss Swift will sell of her Album 'Speak Now' out in 4 days in U.S.? Her last Album 'Fearless' is 6x Plat, opened with 570k sales first week and was top selling album of '09. There was some speculation this Summer She could top a million in a week with 'Speak Now'! What do you predict? I think around 650/700K. A million would be incredible given how weak album sales have been. I'd have thought the likes of Katy Perry to open to double the numbers for example.

October 20, 201014 yr I'm gonna go out on a limb and reckon she'll 'do a Katy Perry' and bring in less than expected. 400k tops.
October 21, 201014 yr I think she'll beat the opening sales of 'Fearless', but not quite make the million mark. So I'll take a risk and say more than 750k
October 21, 201014 yr I'd say more than 750k but that doesn't appear to be an option. The bottom option, no? :unsure:
October 23, 201014 yr Don't be so picky, you know what it meant :P I'm more convinced that it will sell over 750k now. I've heard of some fans showing they will get the normal & deluxe editions, and after listening to the album, the quality is really great.
October 23, 201014 yr We cant underestimate Taylor she is a force in America so i think she should sell over 500,000
October 25, 201014 yr There is nobody as powerful as this girl in the US market imo Edited October 25, 201014 yr by 7heDreamer
October 26, 201014 yr Author Industry prognosticators are suggesting the Big Machine set may arrive with as much as 800,000 to 900,000 copies sold by week's end on Oct. 31. And, there's even a chance it could approach 1 million. Her start could be more than 2010's current biggest week, when Eminem's "Recovery" arrived at No. 1 with 741,000 according to Nielsen SoundScan. If sales of "Speak Now" turn out to be especially rosy, it could be the industry's first album to sell 1 million copies in one week since Lil Wayne's "Tha Carter III" bowed with 1,006,000 in June of 2008. The potential sales of "Speak Now" must be music to the industry's ears, after many superstar album releases this year have failed to meet or exceed first-week expectations. A month ago, sources were projecting the "Speak Now" would start with 750,000. Taylor Swift's last album, "Fearless," started at No. 1 with 592,000 in November 2008 and has sold 6 million. http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/content_dis...3b0a1f6fcbb923d :o
October 27, 201014 yr Taylor selling over 800k seems very plausible. She seems to be having everything going for her!
