Idol Sales News – Week Ending 12/07/14

Taylor Swifts wins the album sales and BB200 race for this week with HDD estimating 227,933 and 273,352. The Sing-Off’s Pentatonix continues to sell gang-busters at 206,476 and 213,906 (not a lot of steaming juice). Top debut is AC/DC with 165,163 and an SPS of 169,325 (as noted yesterday, Rock fans buy albums). Idina’s Christmas album challenges at 4th and One Direction drops to 5th in sales. But, the streaming will push “4” back to a second week at 4th. The surprise of the week is Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon”. That album is always flirting with the BB200, but to see it in 10th is unusual. It won’t hold that 10th in the new style BB200, but way to go. Kelly’s SPS points gets her into the top 50 on the BB200.

Note that below I’ve included ptebwwong excellent collection of BB Year-End stats. Congrats to 1D for being the Top Artists and Top Duo/Group Artists!
