And that total doesn't include the from 250,000 to 270,000 copies that were given away at the concerts prior to the album's official release. SoundScan doesn't count those, but I believe the RIAA does. So this is definitely a platinum album for sure, maybe double platinum when all is said and done. And that hasn't happened for some time now (since the Diamonds and Pearls album). So well done indeed, Prince. Congrats!
