I never argued your point, I'm just saying that you made it seem that she would struggle to hit those numbers.
My bad. I'm just scared to overestimate again after Applause's receipts came in.

MTE. Especially on Twitter where everyone is like "LITTLE MONSTERRRR 4EVERRR" and then those underwhelming #s came in. It's obvious that many Monsters didn't buy Applause.
TFM, just like TD, compensated its weak first week sales with longevity it got from the massive singles, I really really hope ARTPOP can do it too, but if Applause is any indication of the future singes' success, then we can remove that scenario out of the equation.

we're gonna have to have a receipt postathon on November 11. I swear if any of you only zippyshare ARTPOP...
I think ARTPOP will do between 300-375k first week. And honestly those numbers aren't bad at all. She's not at her peak anymore and hopefully the singles can keep the album afloat.

Remember the iTunes fest fiasco?
Half of them didn't even have iTunes downloaded on their computer.
To this day, I still have the BTW leak on my iPod. I put it on my iPod a few days before BTW's release (I just couldn't wait) and then bought the album on release day. I never bought any BTW singles on iTunes either. A Monster on Twitter gifted me MTN and Gaga's Thanksgiving EP though. Twitter Monsters were so nice in 2011, now that I think about it.
im planning on buying several copies of ARTPOP---the itunes edition, the foil cover, and perhaps a standard cover. Possibly an amazon copy if it goes on sale. I legit bought 3 or 4 copies on amazon with Born This Way

I unfollowed everyone on my TL who kept asking how to use/download iTunes
