I'm not a fan of HC and I don't like it anymore than Discipline, but I need to correct you on a few things...

First of all, Madonna sold 100k more than Janet did in her opening week in the U.S., not 50k. Second, 'Hard Candy' sold more than 3x what 'Discipline' did WW in its opening week. Third, the "go ahead and retire" comment is valid because it took over ten weeks for 'Discipline' to double its opening week #'s. It'll have to do it again if Janet wants to reach Gold, and it doesn't look very likely. Fourth, there was a good amount of promo leading up to the album release but there hasn't been much follow-up. Better singles and better promo could have had her at least 100k higher by now.

Only idiots like you all say **** about retiring..Janet is not doing it for the sales, she is making music for the fans. She's already made her fortune..she could've retired LONG ago.
