[elincomprendid]

Nearly nine years after its enormous chart debut, 1989 stands atop her discography in terms of multi-metric consumption. To date, no Swift album has earned more equivalent album units – which comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA) – than 1989, with 12.3 million units, according to Luminate.

[Machete]

Best pop album of all time did that 

[LCTV]

As it SHOULD.

[Feanor]

That's a massive jump from the 11.4M units it was at last November.

[State of Grace.]

Omg it did like 900k since the last update (Nov 2022 iirc)

 

The way it would have passed 21 nn

1989 selling more than a million a year now 

 

I know the TVs don’t combine for Billboard charts or RIAA certain but I feel like 1989 might reach 20m combined in the long run

Huh? 21 is at 17m+ 

[Raspberries]

 

If there was no TV, this would be close to 15M by mid-decade

In the long run, considering one is barely Top 200 and the other is #16 last week. 

 

But that's never happening with the TV. Anyways!

POP BIBLE. When 1989 TV eventually goes Diamond as well.

 

[Badgalbriel]

It's doing 1m per year lol. It's a shame the re-recording are gonna kill those stolen albums total sales 

[Enrique523]

There's NO WAY she's not doing 1M+ for the TV version first week 

[tshwark]

She failed at scoring Diamond in pure sales, the gp said NO even with all the hype.

Diamond being Taylor's standard for the GP saying yes. I guess that truly says it all.

Exactly, they didn't see value in the album, so there's nothing left but to cling to streaming.

[NoOneDiesFromLove]

Pop Bible did that

They need to just certify the album diamond so she can accompany other legends. I get it there's bad blood but this is probably the last women to have double diamond status

 

Whitney

Madonna

Mariah

Shania

Celine

Britney 

Adele

The chicks

Taylor needs to join

1989 + 1989 TV probably passing 21 by the end of next year is absolutely wild

If only other albums were remembered enough for people to still stream
