official chart BB: Ed 350-425K

[WeFoundWill]

I expected 800k after all the hype tbh. 

[blackbeatxx]

He basically did this in UK first day

 

[Capruni]

I expect around 500k sales...

[Papa2Cyrus]

Adele sh00k

 

[Rawr]

this is really good lmao

and i hate him

[One Nation]

Hmm...

 

I think he'll do more

[YR.]

As expected  

[Alejandro_]

i thought the "male Adele" would do more...surely..truly

[pablozedd]

Expected more but this album will have longevity as most of his albums so whatever

 

[Ryann]

i'm pressed

[Cockney Cupcake]

Ngl I expected more but he'll keep having big 100k week sales and streams so he is good 

[rihsus]

imagine wasting this amount of money buying his albums. this could feed plenty of poor kids in Africa

 

 

[jaded]

 

 

 

[lemonade.]

I really thought he'd be doing at least double this oh wow

[Chemical X.]

Makes more sense to me than the HDD predictions. I'm always shocked at his overall album sales/general numbers because he doesn't feel that big here. Idk.

Seems low for his ego.

[Movimento Perpétuo]

Ki

 

Hopefully the sales decrease more and more just for his ugly ass ego to fume

THIS

[Unbreakable Heaven]

I think he'll do 500k with SPS tbh. When is iHearts? Plus doesn't he have his Today Show performance?

[Unbreakable Heaven]

Plus Billboard predicted 750k for 1989 initially.

[Beyonnaise]

With all of his own hyping you'd think he'd be up there with Taylor  

[NE.]

ATRL loses again.

[iphridian]

So is this number to include streaming? I am still confused on how they calculate streaming when they include it to the overall sales for an album or single tbh.

Yes, they're talking about total units. Units are calculated as follows: units = sales + (track sales / 10) + (track streams / 1,500).
