It's really hard to say if the sales would have been bigger in 2001. Don't forget that the Internet is a HUGE part of Lady Gaga's success. That's where she markets herself, with her videos, her twitter, her facebook. Her and Bieber are probably the biggest online stars right now, so to compare it to how they would have done in 2001 is really touchy!
+ a lot of Gaga sales will come from online buyers, which wasn't the case back then. I think that the fact that people buy a lot less CDs today because of the Internet, but that some stars like Gaga owes pretty much the majority of their success on the Internet makes it even.
It dragged a whole extra month though.
