Adele’s 25 Becomes First Album To Sell 1M Copies In Multiple Weeks

Adele's commercial dominance continues: Billboard reports that 25 has become the first album to sell more than a million copies in two different weeks since Nielsen started collecting sales data in 1991. She sold 3.38 million copies in her first week, beating out *NSYNC's long-standing record of 2.42 million, and will come in at just over 1 million this week. The final numbers will be available on Sunday (12/6).

Congrats Adele! This is a feat that will probably never be achieved again.
