Would Taylor's music have fit into the selling mold?
Saying she'd be diamond is a reach assumption no matter how you slice it.

All we are saying is given the fact that she sells so much right now, completely dominating everyone else her album sales would have most likely been higher than they are, considering that people actually bought popular music back then.
Its a fallacy but from a mathematical standpoint it makes sense.
Best selling album 2012- 4m
Best selling album 1999- 11m.
Is it really a stretch to think the '12 album would have sold similar to the '99 one if released at the same period of time?
Both albums were the most popular albums of that given yr.
