That would make it the 10th biggest opening of the Soundscan era and biggest since "The Massacre" in 2005.
... and the biggest debut for a pop album since 2001.

It would be interesting to see the sales without the Amazon 99 cent sale, which I'm sure made up approximately 40 - 50% of the final sales...
Either way it's pretty impressive. Congrats to GaGa and her monsters

Big numbers.
It will be interesting to see how the album sells within the next few weeks. How long was the .99 cent offer was on for?
