My prediction was almost right on the spot! I predicted 265K for Rihanna!

I'm raising my prediction to 265K, because it's popularity bar is higher than I expected. Originally I was expecting "Take A Bow" to sell 245K or less. It's tricky, because it's popularity bar is higher than when Mariah debuted with 286K, but I think it's downloads will die off faster than "Touch My Body" and "Umbrella", because of it's limited airplay. "Umbrella" sold 276K with way more airplay than "Take A Bow", and ended up selling 2 million downloads, while on the contrast "Touch My Body" had a lot of airplay, record breaking downloads, and yet it's struggling to reach a million. Sometimes airplay doesn't matter in the case of Mariah. I guess what a surprise for Rihanna. I was never expecting "Take A Bow" to hit #1, and it did. Go Rihanna!
