Your point here already proves that they are different artists with different release schedule that shouldn’t be compared with one another in the first place. The album achievement should be compared with those in the same climate/time frame, and for that, both did great.

I thought it had sold 3.5M by its first year Well 30 won't do that either so you can keep the same energy for it with your low effort self drag, i guess 1 minute ago, Carrie-is-no-1 said: What I don’t understand is why you want to prove your stupid points for the past 7 weeks, pitching two successful women against one another just to fulfil your egocentric pov. I just quoted someone from your fanbase who was dragging Taylor so you are dictating your point to the wrong person.

They were Nielsen numbers which uses end of December as a deadline so according to it, 30 already completed its first year and will complete its second year this year.

It's a re-recording of an old album with new arrangements and vocals, plus 10 new tracks Are they still acting as if people are out here buying the ten year old version ?
Virtual_Insanity Posted January 5, 2022 Posted January 5, 2022 1 hour ago, georgechxng said: Right. Not to mention Reputation debuted with 1.2M so when you put it like that, it looks even worse for Taylor since 30 was able to sell 1M in its 5 first weeks post debut while Reputation couldn't even sell 800k Not to mention Reputation was heavily boosted by merch bundles.

From Adele's vinyl article Quote Most artists have had to weather similar vinyl delays. The week before 30 arrives, Taylor Swift will reissue Red on a four-LP “Taylor’s Version” vinyl — a feat of scheduling that wasn’t actually possible for Swift’s ninth album, evermore, which arrived on vinyl nearly six months after its release. The same was true of artists like Olivia Rodrigo, Variety also noted, whose May 2021 album Sour hit vinyl months later. David Macias, head of indie label Thirty Tigers, told the magazine that a delayed vinyl release can impact sales by 30 to 40 percent. For big artists, demand is always biggest during the first week(s) so if you miss it, demand will decrease over time. There is a reason artists are trying to get copies ready for first week.

And this did not effect Folklore at all, as all vinyl copies ordered for first week were counted for sales, via the digital download included with the purchase. Taylors fans will purchase things whenever she has them ready, as evidenced by Folklores yo yoing up and down the charts .

GP was not able to buy any Folklore or Evermore copies from stores for weeks, the weeks demand was at its peak. If selling albums in stores didn't mean anything(which is what you are claiming), no artist would bother to ship them to stores since fans will buy from the website anyway.

Mhm, albums not being in stores doesn't matter at all, that's why Adele didn't delay her album a year because of the pandemic, oh wait You really need to just give it up, KatyKat, go back to your Play threads

And once again, for Folklore the album was in stores from week THREE, for Evermore from week TWO.
