This is a work that i made with Mediatraffic data..
but it think is not perfect because count only top 40 album week in week, and there's some album that maybe stay always in 40-50 position sellin 30-40.000 copies everyweek but don't figure on chart...
I think that for best selling album this data are +- the 95% of total real sales..but for less sales album are also 70-80%...

but this is the list of the album that have more sales in 2006 :

James Blunt - Back To Bedlam 5.343.000

[winner2000]

Wow I'm kinda surprised Madge is #2 on the '06 list...good for her tho!

[joao]

Very interesting. The whole Top 6 is made of 2005 releases, the best selling 2006 release being Red Hot Chili Peppers. This is not a good year for new releases.

i dunno...i take all data starting to week n.1 in 2006 in mediatraffic site.

maybe week 1 in 2006 consider also 2005 data because have a big data for every disc..

i have made an excel file..if u want to compare to your data send me a MP.

but btw, where u find this data??

[crazy4bk]

sales are so low! omg! I think when the year finnishes, we wil possibly see dixie chicks, beyonce and christina all in the top ten. oh, and i can forget about justin timber lake. all four should be at least double platinum in the U.s. before the year is up. Christina will probably be at about 6 million before the year is up cuz i have a feeling her new single is going to be on fire in europe.

[zago]

naaaaaaaaa.......
stop that teen-pop music...i think that this year Stadium Arcadium will sell at least 7 million copies that are sufficient to take n.1 (last year n.1 american idiot sell 7,9 million copies).
James blunt too have good chance becuse has already sell almost 5 million..
I think (and hope , sorry man but i hate ,justin,christina and beyonce) that new albums of this artists make a flop..like the last teen-pop oriented album of Pink..
and more, theese 3 new albums came out in autumn..too late to be the best seller of 2006.

Don't forget new guns n roses album..if will be out early..

[R2G]

Whats the total album sales for the top 20...
Thanks to whomever can provide this data

[crazy4bk]

[oasisbobo]

[MJDangerous]

[joao]

[zago]

i think that if mediatraffic say 10 millions in real sell somethink like 11 millions...
the fact that they cover only top 40 penalize the data..
there are a lot of albums that stay in 40°-50° positions selling 40-50.000 copies everyweek but is not take in consideration.
For smaller-sales album this problem is bigger than for bestsellers..
An album like Editors album that are 41.000 in total..in real i think can be also 300.000 but is counted only the data of the week that the album enter in top 40.

I think that will be great if Mediatraffic expand their chart to ,at least, a Top50...
We can do a petition

Christina is assured to be top 10 at the year-end list when her album comes out.

Not so sure about Justin/Yonka though they are doing the same thing they did w/their last albums so I think people will be tired. Christina is actually taking a risky non-radio friendly w/one of her cds as heard in "Candyman" and "I got Trouble" which sound very soulfoul 20's,30's,40's something that radio would never play so we will see.
