I looked at your Elvis' calculations, and I'd like to point out a very important factor when you calculate the sales of those records that have been released before the music piracy began in 2000.
- I see you have 1.1 million for Germany, which in fact is 1.5m. You need to refer to this here for German Certification volumes for the years after 2000 and before 2000 (scroll the 90% of the page down, you will see a detailed table). German platinum was 500,000, both for albums and singles and 250,000 for Gold.
- The Dutch certification volume on albums was Platinum=80,000, Gold=40,000.
- Swedish platinum volume was 60,000, gold=30,000.
- The Finnish platinum album volume was 30,000 on international artists, gold=15,000.
- In Norway, it was 40,000 for platinum, 20,000 for gold.
- For Brazil refer to this here
- For Mexico refer to this here, by the way where'd you get the 550,000?
- In France, before 2004, the platinum was 300,000, for gold it was 150,000. For France use this here, the sum of the certifications comes up to 2.8m.--Harout72 (talk) 05:30, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
