2012 YTD album sales in the US
Big thanks to oldbloke at ukmix for compiling this list everyweek!
i thought we should have it here aswell! 
Quote:
WEEK 7
albums selling over 1,000,000 - this year - 1 / last year - 0
albums selling over 500,000 - this year - 1 / last year - 0
albums selling over 250,000 - this year - 1 / last year - 3
albums selling over 100,000 - this year - 28 / last year - 28
total albums sales - this year - 41.70m (+4.4%) / last year - 39.95m
The number of albums that have sold over 50,000 so far this year increases to 66, up 12 from last week. A further 2 albums would appear on the list if SoundScan included sales from christian outlets in their YTD numbers: David Crowder Band's "Give Us Rest" has total sales of 83,400 (34,200 throught christian outlets) and James Fortune & FIYA'S "Identity" total sales are 56,700 (17,200 through christian outlets).
The combined sales of the top 10 on this is list totals 3.42 million - over half of that total (1.74 million) belongs to Adele. She also appears on "Now 41" (SLY) and the "Grammy Nominees" (RITD), and if that isn't enough there's a Kidz cover of Someone Like You on "Kidz Bop 21".

Full update, courtesy of oldbloke @ ukmix!
Another 11 albums pass the 50,000 YTD sales mark this week taking the total to 77. Amazing that it was this week last year that Adele's "21" debuted on the BB200 at #1 and the YTD chart at #2 - the only time it has appeared on a YTD list and not been #1.
