Did Britney have the second and fourth best-selling international albums of 2004 in Japan? |
Oricon started including imports during the 2004 chart year, this is only a list that shows which albums had the most imports that year (the compilation album Queen Jewels by Queen, for example, isn't listed as it was a Japan only release so they couldn't import it). Here's the top 5 from what I can see on the yearly chart:
1. Queen - Queen Jewels
2. Avril Lavigne - Under My Skin
3. Britney Spears - Greatest Hits: My Prerogative
4. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Greatest Hits
5. Britney Spears - In the Zone
I'm only including western releases btw so no 12 Girls Band, Winter Sonata OST etc.
She also had the fourteenth and nineteenth best selling international singles that year with My Prerogative and Me Against the Music, respectively (they both move up a spot if you limit it to western artists).

Import sales are albums imported into Japan from other markets, usually they're from popular international artists. Japanese consumers would import them at a fraction of the cost they would spend buying the Japanese press at retailers in Japan (a new album in the U.S. costs about $10-20 depending on the edition, features, etc. while a new Japanese press of the album starts at about $20 and increases based on the version). That's why Japanese albums always get the special bonus tracks and bonus features - they're incentives to buy the more expensive Japanese press rather than buying an import. But the average consumer doesn't care about some random club remix and would rather save their coins.
Before 2004, Oricon did not include import sales in their charts which would result in a hole in the total sales figure we were being provided. You would only be getting a small piece of a bigger picture. In the mid-90's, especially, there was a lot of pressure on Oricon to include imports in their charts. SoundScan Japan cropped up as the main competitor for Oricon and they included imports from the U.S. and most of the big European markets (but didn't include key markets like those in SouthEast Asia, and obviously lacked the influence and range of data Oricon has). So, in typical Oricon fashion, they waited until 2004 to meet the demand.
Imports are a big deal for western artists, like Britney, in particular. Some albums total figures were halved when only looking at Oricon numbers. That's why it's important to look at imports.

I see! thanks a lot Kyle!  this was really well explained and a nice read. you know a lot about Japanese charts. 
so the following figures confirmed by Sony Music Japan include import sales, right?
...Baby One More Time: 700k (also confirmed by billboard)
Oops I Did It Again: 575k
Britney: 450k
In The Zone: 550k
Greatest Hits: 850k
and releases from Blackout onwards already include import sales? Billboard Japan stated Circus sold 150k which is a bit higher from the Oricon figure. that must include digital sales.
B in the Mix: The Remixes (26,219) #25
Blackout (79,086) #4 GOLD
Circus (117,911) #5 GOLD
The Singles Collection (75,893) #8
i wonder what are the totals for these albums. could The Singles Collection be certified gold one day?
thank you again

iTunes wasn't very popular in Japan until around 2013 and their digital market hasn't taken off until very recently. I'm sure TSC should be there with shipments, though, and if not, the next era should push it past the mark.
Those numbers include import sales. ITZ had one month of uncounted import sales because Oricon incorporated imports in December 2003.

Nothing official, but I've always seen K-Pop stans do this and wondered what it would look like for Britney.
Career Gross:
90M albums x $10 = $900,000,000
110M singles x $1 = $110,000,000
1B Spotify streams x $.00521 = $5,210,000
3.3B VEVO views x $.00175 = $5,775,000
Touring Grosses = $431,700,000
4.1M DVDs x $15 = $61,500,000
Total Career Gross: $1,514,185,000
Streaming revenue taken from here.

None of that is musically related, but we do know:
Perfume Gross: $1,000,000,000+
Film Gross: $61,100,000
X-Factor: $15,000,000
Total: $1,076,100,000
Plus Earlier Total: $2,590,285,000
Her career gross is excellent, though it could be much better.
