YTD Sales : Please read these guidelines before you request sales estimates, it makes my task a lot easier.

 

1. Be specific - please name the artist and title for each entry you'd like an estimate for.

2. I log sales for all albums that have charted this year, but only update those that have sold enough to reach my 200 position tracking range

3. If an album isn't in the current Top 100, I won't be able to update its sales until Tues. Also, please don't ask about ex-T100 albums too often - once a month at most)

4. Remember to check the thread before requesting estimates - they may already have been answered. Also, no more than half-a-dozen requests at a time, thanks.

5. Please note my figures are combined sales & streams, and since I have no way of separating them, I cannot provide a split.

6. While I am no longer estimating singles sales, I can provide YTD singles positions from C+, and I am still maintaining my sales archive based on published figures (PM me if you want to see it)

 

Thank you.

I wouldn't be surprised if Greatest Showman sells another million this year. Should pass the 2 million mark anyway.

I can't see the album selling another million this year unless streaming sales for the album either hold up or increase dramatically. Its paid for sales are going to fall below 10,000 a week at some point in the near future...

 

Yeah TGS going to loose stean before long but it could pass the 2 million mark

I *would*

I agree - Hugh Jackman on tour and accompanying promo and general hype will also help.
