The album sold 420k Digitally meaning Mumford & Sons now own the 2nd largest Digital Sales Week for any album, only Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" sold more (662,000).
Quote:
Second Largest Digital Sales Week for an Album: With 420,000 downloads sold, "Babel" scores the second-biggest frame for a digital album in history. Only Lady Gaga's "Born This Way," which moved 662,000 downloads in its first week in 2011, sold more digital copies in a week. (A chunk of Gaga's figure was driven by Amazon MP3's sale pricing of the set at 99-cents for two days during release week.) In third place on the all-time biggest download weeks is Lil Wayne's "Tha Carter IV," which sold 362,000 digital copies its first week last year.
