And no, there's not much difference between a March or May release at all, both times are terrible for an artist who barely promotes. But yes, I have accepted that we could be looking at our very own Lotus in a few months and will just have to deal.

Trust me, some fans expected 400K+. Anyways, 2 months can make the difference.
Femme Fatale stopped charting 5 months into it's release (August). If this album happens to suffer the same fate and lasts about the same time on the charts (5-6 mos.) that could mean that during it's charting period, it will extend onto Quarter 4 and possibly Black Friday, thus, leading to increased sales. Something FF didn't have.
And c'mon, Lady Gaga released her album in May and that didn't stop it from doing well. It's all about hype! And I think we can sure as hell hype **** up. Plus, Britney will have the momentum from S&S and X-Factor still fresh in May, by Q4, it'll all be gone.
Nothing can flop as hard as Lotus.

Let's not even fathom it.
I just hope to sell 1 million in the US.

If she goes Platinum (sales), I'm good.

Or at least like 900K-950K. Something around those lines.
