Good Question
You mean Virgin? I guess an Eastgate stock is somewhere between 2000-5000 units, and I gues an equal amount of people would buy it.
Can't see it. Nobody can say TD sell X amount of units for anyone album. 20 years ago you could have had an approx amount, but these days it's just total guess work (with respect to you Jacob), there's far too many outlets to buy things (yeah I know not all TD's albums are available beyond this site), and I know some people think that unless it's in SMDs chart it aint selling etc (especially SMD
)...but ask yourself how many online stores do you buy your stuff from these days? I use about a dozen. I can't see Virgin even answering their phone for less that 5000 sales, costs and distribution would eat into this and make it a waste of time and money (from their POV). However there are smaller labels that would be prepared to take on the risk, purely to get the music out there...but as we know Virgin are prepared to sit on the rights for decades, just to protect their rights, even if they haven't got the balls to release it themselves.
