So ahead of DSOTM (well, in the Soundscan era at least...that album must have sold around 20 million in the US overall :o)
Counting down the days until 21 outsells Morning Glory in the UK.
Mission complete on 29.12.2012 :)

After passing DSOTM, it doesn't look like Adele will not be going up on a weekly basis and

19 ( = ) 9,990,613 Confessions - Usher (27/05/2012) 1,792 (-4%) 1,866
20 ( = ) 9,953,302 Hybrid theory - Linkin Park (27/05/2012) 2,320 (+2%) 2,276

21 ( = ) 9,947,920 Ten - Pearl Jam (27/05/2012) 1,683 (+36%) 1,237

Looks like Usher will beat her to 10mil but I think she can give Linkin Park and Pearl Jam a run for their money in reaching that plateau
No way you're never shake me, oooh darlin' coz you'll.......

One album I disagree with on blackandblue's regular update is the inclusion of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's "E.1999" album in the top 100 on sales of 6,120,000. This is because that figure combines the sales of different issues of the album which are currently separate in the SS database. Missing from blackandblue's top 100 is the Fugee's "The Score" album...

In his Chart Watch Extra blog in March, Paul Grein posted the following from the SoundScan era top 200 best selling albums…

11. Norah Jones, Come Away With Me 10,807,000
18. Eminem, The Eminem Show, 10,049,000
19. Usher, Confessions, 9,968,000
39. Adele, 21, 8,090,000
41. 50 Cent, Get Rich Or Die Tryin', 8,086,000
51. Evanescence, Fallen, 7,619,000 #51.
53. Nickelback, All The Right Reasons, 7,582,000 #53.
62. Carrie Underwood, Some Hearts, 7,177,000 #62.
71. Avril Lavigne, Let Go, 6,782,000 #71.
76. Taylor Swift, Fearless, 6,514,000 #76.
78. Nelly, Nellyville, 6,488,000 #78.
85. Kelly Clarkson, Breakaway, 6,219,000 #85.
93. Green Day, American Idiot, 6,056,000 #93.
94. Dixie Chicks, Home, 6,041,000 #94.
101. Mariah Carey, The Emancipation Of Mimi, 5,964,000
102. Josh Groban, Closer, 5,960,000
103. Linkin Park, Meteora, 5,913,000
110. OutKast, Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, 5,702,000
127. Josh Groban, Noel, 5,446,000
129. Shania Twain, Up!, 5,409,000
136. 50 Cent, The Massacre, 5,286,000
137. Eminem, Encore, 5,282,000
140. Rascal Flatts, Feels Like Today, 5,230,000
143. Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift, 5,175,000
144. Guns N' Roses, Greatest Hits, 5,161,000
The Score had sold 5,920,000 by October 10, 2008, so using Paul's info above the album must have added enough sales to be in the top 100, as it cannot be lower than #103 & #'s 101 & 102 are taken. It was #89 on the list Hanboo posted as of the end of 2006 on sales of 5,816,000.

^With 75k in sales this week, Adele should move up to #24.

Usher is now less than 8k from 10 million scanned.

^THANKS!!

With 63k in sakes this week, Adele will hold at #24. And probably for a few more weeks as well...

Usher is less than 5k to 10 million scanned.

I miss Michael JAckson's Dangerous in this list.
When he passed away, it had sold nearly 6 million, and I am sure it has now sold around 6.2 million, but I can't find it on this list.

Dangerous sales are splittied between different versions of the CD. That's why it's not on the list.

That's a shame and makes me think how many more albums would have the same sort of situation. As far as I know, there is only two CD versions of Dangerous, the original and the 2001 remaster which did not have any extra songs, they should really count it as one.
In fact, the figure I have of 5.9 millions up to 2005 included I guess both versions.

I guess it'll be awhile until the 100th best selling album have at least sold 6mil, albums 95-100 doesn't seem to be "good" sellers. I wonder how long before 6 other healthy sellers will pass them

Great news for Usher passing 10mil! Tom Petty, Nirvana and Queen are about to cross new million plateaus as well, it'll be cool if they all happen the same week
No way you're never shake me, oooh darlin' coz you'll.......

From Chart Watch:

Usher's 2004 album Confessions tops the 10 million mark in U.S. sales this week. It's only the 19th album to reach that milestone since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales for Billboard in 1991. Confessions is the best-selling R&B album in this period (excluding hip hop). Here's the rest of the top five among R&B albums: Boyz II Men's II (8,586,000), TLC's CrazySexyCool (7,342,000), Janet Jackson's janet. (7,035,000) and Boyz II Men's Cooleyhighharmony (6,971,000).

So Mariah's "Music box" and "Daydream" are considered pop instead of R&B
