As to your point on Britney's sales from the second quarter what does that have to do with anything? Besides the fact that it's not true. Britney only released one album before Fatale in the first quarter and that was her debut which sold around 120-160k.
Her biggest sales week came from the second quarter of May, 2000 with 1.3 million. For further proof Circus sold 1 million copies just with December sales and it took her until March of 09' to reach 1.5 million. That in itself kind of proves that sales periods get bigger as the months get later in the year.

I didn't mean that, I said that femme fatale was basically released in the second quater with only 3 days in the first (the 29th, 30th and 31st).
and just logically, why would sales in May differ from sales in March? sales are higher in oct-dec because people get albums for holidays, while sales in jan-early feb are lower for the opposite reason. sales in other months are the same.
