thebigham Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 IGTTYAS was released on June 20, 2006. HITS estimated 40k. The cd debuted at #30 on HITS with 27,133. IGTTYAS debuted at #33 on the Billboard 200 with sales of 25,475. Total sales to date are a little over 70k. Will TCT open better or lower?

SexPistol Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Is there a DVD-only version of the set being released? If so, that will cut into its sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motherandfather03 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 IT DEPENDS ON PROMO. IF THERE IS NOTHING AGAIN THAN IT WILL DO EVEN WORSE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FuckBuddy Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Is there a DVD-only version of the set being released? If so, that will cut into its sales. i agree. it's all about the dvd, so why would a casual buyer want to pay some extra cash just for the sake of a cd he will hardly listen to?

HolidayGuy Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I doubt there wll be a standalone DVD in the USA (there wasn't for IGTTYAS), but I haven't heard anything one way or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest boytoyville Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I actually think it will do a little better that IGTTYAS because it had higher viewership(to my knowledge anyway) and many fans would rather have this than that doc more the most part in my opinion. I think it will perhaps sell 200,000 by years end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subhuman Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 As far as I know the DVD only edition is gonna be released in Europe only. Does anybody have first week sales for her other DVDs? I'm assuming the DWT figures are floating around somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SexPistol Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 There was a DVD-only version on Amazon.com, complete with cover photo in the shape of a normal DVD case, however that has been removed as of a day or two ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bad Robot Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 i agree. it's all about the dvd, so why would a casual buyer want to pay some extra cash just for the sake of a cd he will hardly listen to? Funny, cuz I feel the exact opposite! For me I'd much rather have the CD of live cuts. I might watch the DVD once but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtzlplk Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I think this definitely sell more than IGTTYAS... this is a concert DVD, compared to the documentary, I am sure there'll be more MADONNA fans who will buy this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayGuy Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 DWT did almost 17K in its first week. Not the best barometer, as we saw that IGTTYAS did 25K+, and I can't imagine there was that much interest in the documentary. But, remember that DWT was short on classics- just 2 pre-1994 tracks.

notsomuch Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Sure it will sell more than Secret. Secret was a movie not a concert DVD. The concert just happened 5 months ago and played to almost a half million in the US alone. A good amount will want to relive it and will buy the DVD. One thing American's don't have a problem spending money on are DVD's. I'm guessing it will sell well for a concert DVD. I don't know if you can put it in a CD catagory, to me that's an added bonus...the CD. Her voice has improved so much over the last 10 years live...it is amazing.

HolidayGuy Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I don't know about *way* better, but possibly better. It's a weak time for sales, though- something to keep in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtzlplk Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Does anyone here think there are MADONNA fans insane enough not to buy this concert DVD which has been post-produced very well, plus the fact that you will see the CROSS in full clarity?

SexPistol Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 i certainly think there is fan interest in this, but i dont think that concert DVDs particularly sell well among the average consumer. the average consumer is more likely to purchase a movie on DVD rather than a concert. that's why i think IGTYAS's sales will be higher. but who knows, i could be wrong. i certainly think the CT DVD deserves to sell more...

I believe the DVD+CD set will be located in the CD section of most retail stores, since it is in a CD jewel case, just like IGTYAS was. I dont think I've ever seen IGTYAS in the DVD section.

lemi Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 There used to be two versions for the US available via Amazon.com but now there seems to be only one: DVD + CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notsomuch Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I don't think there is a wrong and right. The thing is a majority knows that Madonna puts on an amazing show. There are few artists that have that kind of spin. Madonna has been putting on killer concerts for 20 years. Does anyone know how her other DVD's have sold over the years?

mtzlplk Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 just one flashback question: For IGTTYAS, Can someone post the sales of the CD/DVD one that charted in Top 200 albums and the one that charted in the DVD chart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightshade Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 FYI: The Confessions Tour CD+DVD is already No. 16 (right now anyway) on the Amazon.com "Best-Sellers in Music list." Perhaps the mention on Letterman helped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
