The only thing they have to take into consideration is the big pre-orders. When dealing with numbers like this, it's probably best not to make predictions right now just in case.
1.2 sounds about right though. Could end up at 1 million or 1.1 million though. Really surprised she did it in this sales climate though, even with all of the promo she's done for it. The fact that Britney's record could possibly be broken not once, but twice (this week and in a few months) is pretty incredible for this day and age.
If this OVERRATED album (Britney Jean) breaks the record, I would be pissed....Taylor should break it! shes much more talented then my flop fave. Not a bunch of Prism rejects!
