Hmmm.....I know those are official numbers and blah blah but Gaga should be way lower considering she sold 400,000 copies at a reduced 99 cent price and Billboard no longer accepts that...

Billboard also no longer accepts cassette sales. Should we go through all the 90's albums and subtract those sales since they aren't included anymore?
