Taylor Swift’s new album “Speak Now” could sell between 800,000 and 900,000 copies by Sunday, October 31. That’s impressive!

Even though most consumers choose to download digital singles, some artists still create the demand of a physical product. You could easily call those artists the anointed ones because many international stars cannot sell a million records within one week.
