We can only hope the economy is gonna improve in the next months, so the sales on the musical charts will get better as well.
They are doing really bad considering how sales were in the past years, but are doing good considering how everyone is selling today, that's what I mean... 350k is far from being huge, but still on top 10, what would be impossible in May some years ago... So:

compared with past years: BAD
compared with how everyone is selling today: GOOD

It will not outsell GUILTY, but no many people will outsell GUILTY this year =) New times, new parameters
