Only two albums have sold 10million+ in the last decade [US]

[Gstar]

And they are..

Adele - 21
Usher - Confessions

both rightfully deserved but still shocked, only two? I would have thought there'd be at least ten. Goes to show the damage caused by downloads. Welp

album sales are in the ****ter :shrug: plus sites like spotify are causing even bigger decreases in sales :shrug:

[Me. I Am Salman]

its terrible how bad its got. albums should mean something. hard work thoguht out sequences.a beginning middle and end and some kind of core theme and sound.
but the album is being killed. mainly by jack sparrows and individual downloads and streaming and the closing of small stores who used to sell them. now if you want to buy album you need to go online. and know what your after. impulse buying when shopping is dead. cept the tiny amount of crap the supermarkets sell which is top40 then gone
bit shame

average sales now are if you do 500k your doing ok

its worrying as the only real way to make money now is touring. and a lot of these acts suck live. and the top touring acts are all older and legends. when they die out who will replace them. where will the album be then..

they need to do something and fast.
