Well I still say not bad considering the circumstances (no major
label, no radio play, limited promotion, no itune release, lukewarm
critical reviews, etc.).

<Moderator: Actually it's really bad, because after the 100k hardcore fans
buy the album the follow week there will be a major drop off. Casual fans
and the curious will a little trickle in the sales, but nothing to write
home about. -Derek>

<Moderator: Traditionally Price always says around 150,000 units the
first
week. It's not really impressive at all. It's only impressive when he
continues to do so for proceeding weeks. 1 weekend of promo and an
no push
for Bria is not going to sell CDs. I am glad they are at least
reporting on
the Soundscan numbers. The RIAA numbers are bull. They are going to
report
140000 x 3. Each CD in a set counts as a sell to the RIAA. They also
count
units shipped not sound like Sound scan -Derek>
