I don't mind people say BTW is flopping because we'll see in 2 years time. It will continue to sell each and every week even with 10k-30k small amounts.
And stan war is starting in this thread, please close this before that happens.

Well when it comes down at the end of the day we have to learn to put our trust in the sources we read.

We all joined ATRL for our love of music, why are we stopping our passion to music with those sales? Sales do not prove the materials.

Gaga has had the unfair advantage in so many ways than one. You can't compare someone rush album & a sophomore album with hits to Gaga's era filled with unfair advantages and evil label schemes .

Are we discussing the reasons why BTW sold more than the other albums? We are just discussing the fact that BTW sold more. Thats it. U know if Katy and Rihanna and Britney could do something like the ones u mentioned above in order to boost album sales, they would have really done them. But unfortunately, they couldn't.

Ex-****ing-cuse me?! Katy also had iTunes Promo as much as Gaga. She also had iTunes Countdown singles.
DID YOU JUST USE RIHANNA AND KATY ARGUMENT OF GAGA PAYOLA?! NO WAY. NO WAY. We all know they have much better radio spins ALL THE TIME.

Lol no. Why would we put our trust in any stupid BS source we read?
You don't make sense. TD sold 3,5M WW and BTW will outsell it in about a month more likely. Nothing you can do about it. Stop bitching about it.

Unfortunately monsters will not simply believe anything unless it is from valid source. We're trained to be like that. Even GaGa herself is not a valid source, we're not believing she sold 5m.
So, it is a big NO for your invalid argument because you don't have a reliable source.
