Imagine being "down" to 1.32/1.34 Million when some people can barely get the 0.02 Million

I'm not denying anything you said. Of course Taylor is incredible popular and a sales force, but she's using cheap tricks and gimmicks to practically force her stans to buy multiple copies of the same album.

 

I get that she's competitive and smart, but she's just waaaaay too greedy and extra.

It is far less “cheap”  than a discounted album, bundling your album with tickets, etc.

I thought she was gonna sell 20 million, the next Adele?

Shouldn't rep. be 15th?

shouldn't be there at all yet. Official first week numbers only. She may have 400k sales disqualified for free gift shenanigans.

Adele is the only exception. We all know Taylor will have the best selling female album since her last one excluding Adele. 

She's the 2nd biggest female act and there's no way to try and deny it.

Reading this topic you'd think the woman is flopping with a Witness sized mess of an era.

Today, fortunately there are some artists who can sell a lot and keep the music market at the top.

My faves are Adele and Céline Dion, so I'm not familiar with such tactics. 

Why are the same 3 Adele stans always in every Taylor sales thread  

 

No Swiftie EVER thought she would come close to half let alone her full record.

Massive opening. Hopefully she passes OIDIA.

hopefully she does 1.309 or something.

The upward trajectory whew

Why are the Hive running in here trying to hide behind Adele and drag someone who is about to outsell Lemonade in 2-3 weeks  

It'll probably take longer than that. Lemonade is at 2.6m units in the U.S.

Oh please! The only reason she's releasing two different magazines is because she wants her fans to buy two copies of the same album. If she really cared just for the packaging, she would have made only one version of the magazine, or include both magazines in every copy of the album.

This is true

She really is using tricks

There is nothing bad about it tho swifties after all..they are working!

But u cant deny that they still are tricks and she wouldnt have sold so much if she didnt use them!

Sweetie I’m going by pure sales only since Rep is on 0 streaming services

I can not believe people are trying to drag her

Imagine if she did tour bundles with that

Some Swift fan has put reputation in this already, Cheek.

Damn, Adele.  Her record won't be broken anytime soon. Not even herself is gonna break it.

The same was said about NSYNC and then she happened

well she doesnt need to break her own record. Thats 100% safe from any other artist. I think she will be aiming for the #2 spot come her next album. The drop in general album sales will be ridiculous by then.  Probably 2019-20

Well, if someone really really massive happens in the future, then, there's a chance.

This, I think she will still open with at least 500k which is really awesome. 

Underperforming Queen

Nobody massive is gonna happen in pure sales from here on. Any new young artist breakout superstar will be big in streaming. Adele really is like the last of the dinosaurs saleswise.

Taylor's numbers didn't drop from 1989, why should Adele's drop?

People are mad at Taylor for marketing/merch strategies?

 

Anything to discredit a smart business woman.

 

Hopefully Britney keeps her 2nd place for females.
