The Media Traffic all times sales list which has albums from as early as 2001 on it has been updated. I never thought many months ago that these albums would get past or be threatening to pass HTDAAB, but here they are:
1. X&Y: Yes its true, X&Y is now at #13 on the list with 8.296.000 copies sold worldwide after 35 weeks. This past week it sold 83,000 copies, which indicates its far from being finished selling.
2. The Emancipation Of Mimi: is now at #19 on the list with 7.498.000 sold worldwide after 44 weeks. This past week it sold 78,000 copies. Unless it really starts to slow down soon, it may eventually pass HTDAAB in sales.
3. Breakaway: is now at #23 on the list with 7,082,000 copies sold worldwide after 62 weeks. This past week it sold 109,000 copies and is at #10 on the global chart. While its still 1.1 million copies away from HTDAAB, it is in striking distance especially with such strong sales at this point.
4. Monkey Business: is now at #24 on the list with 6.843.000 copies sold worldwide after 36 weeks. This past week it sold 112,000 copies and is at #9 on the global chart. It needs to sell nearly 1.4 million more copies, but with a sales rate of 100,000 plus per week, its not that far away.
