No, it sold never 30 million... we checked all important markets: in Europe, USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Australia and Japan together the album sold around 21,5 million... and these areas presents nearly 90% of the global market!
the 30 million mark was reported years ago by a British newspaper: The London Telegraph ... but it was simply a wrong information!
|
A bit confused on how they got 25M if their measurements lead them to 21.5M when 90% of the market is covered.
This must means that they do include estimates for the whole world, otherwise they would have left it at 21.5M?

Argentina - Platinum (60,000)
New Zealand - 3x Platinum (45,000)
Brazil - Gold (100,000)
"Eligible" certifications (that her label stole because they were too cheap to pay for and just posted online):
13x Platinum: Phillippines
10x Platinum: Korea
9x Platinum: Taiwan, Thailand
8x Platinum: Indonesia
6x Platinum: Hungary, Venezuela
5x Platinum: India, Mexico
4x Platinum: Brazil, Chile, Malaysia, Netherlands
3x Platinum: New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa
2x Platinum: Argentina, Hong Kong
etc. When you add in the rest of South America (did well here), pretty much all of Asia (did really well here), Africa (meh here), it makes sense that another 3.5M could come out of some 40+ countries with music markets

Yes, I believe it, but do they add in estimates for everything for everyone?

The rest of Asia, Latin America, etc.
They obviously include estimates for the whole world, it's just that sometimes they underestimate some markets but that doesn't mean they don't include them.

So the sales that they have posted on their site don't include the added estimates of the rest of the world, but the ones that they are posting right now do?

Yup.
I can attest the certification in the Philippines. Baby One More Time is one of the best selling albums of all time here. And that certification was back when Platinum meant 100K albums sold. Now the number degraded..
