Here are Irish, Canadian, and US chart results for ATYCLB in week 80/81:

Ireland #32
Canada #67
United States #107

For almost a year now, I have attempted to track ATYCLB progress worldwide often on a weekly basis. The website www.lanet.lv/misc/charts has album chart info for Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Argentina, and Brazil. As of last week though, ATYCLB only ranked in three of the above countries. Many of the above countries, ATYCLB has not charted in months while in the others it has been gone for weeks. In light of the fact that the promotion period for ATYCLB is essentially over and that the album has been out a year and half, I do not expect ATYCLB to return to chart in most of these countries any time soon, and only in the future do to a sale and other U2 promotion not directly related to ATYCLB. Because of this, I will now stop hunting through the charts of 20 different countries in search of ATYCLB. I'll continue to watch with everyone though its progress on the USA, Irish, and Canadian charts, the only countries where ATYCLB is still charting. I'll also attempt to add estimated sales from those three countries to the worldwide figure. Of course ATYCLB is still selling everywhere, just not at a level that can be tracked in those countries.

Anyways, Total USA sales last week were 11,712. Total USA sales to date are 3,849,852 copies. Estimated sales in Ireland for this past week are 412, in Canada 1,517. Total sales of ATYCLB are now estimated at 10,858,852.
 
Hello,

ATYCLB has been off the charts for a few weeks now, but two weeks ago The Best Of 1980-1990 re-entered the charts again (for its 11th chart run). Last week I thought the album had slipped off the charts but somehow I missed it as it did chart. I guess I didn't look high enough.

The week The Best Of... rises from #66 to #55 in its 122nd week on the charts.
Its 11th chart run is:
93-66-55

Hopefully this is the begin of another great run.

C ya!

Marty

Doctor Who,
Any word from Melissa? If she does not respond, I guess will have to wait until Tuesday to look at the magazine itself to find where ATYCLB is. Monday is Memorial day and I excpect the newstands to be closed.

No, nothing yet.

However, sometimes she does send things late. Or if she misses a week, but sends the following week, I still get the data for both weeks.

For now, if I don't get anything, we'll do what you said. Then, we'll estimate sales based on the ranking you find.
