What's the breakdown between concert cd's and sales?

Well, I dont have specific breakdown of retail/concert sales. This weeks 79,000 included 4 shows . If you figure the average is about 15,000 a show..that would roughly mean 60,000 this week was concert, the remianing 19,000 retail.

Over 14 weeks he sits at a little over 700,000 retail.

How stupid ashlee simpson who has not proved anything can sell 400k copies!!

Now, how many other artists do you know of that have been around this long and released this much music STILL have the ability to get their albums to stay in the top ten for weeks on end. Except for three of the fourteen weeks above, this has been the case for Prince with Musicology. It's not a stellar ride, true, but it's getting a longer shelf life than most other records these days. Bravo, Mr. Prince! Next time, send chocolates (quote from the two brothers in the group Good Question, the 1988 Paisley Park release/debut)
