Best-selling album of the 2010s ?

[edit]

There is something that irritates me a bit. It got recently reported that Desfado is the 2010's best-selling album in Portugal. It currently stands at 5x platinum (=75,000 copies sold). On the other hand, Pablo Alboran's En Acustico was reported to have reached 6x platinum (=90,000 copies sold) in Portugal. So which one is fishy - Moura's too low certification or Alboran's too high one?--46.243.81.55 (talk) 17:13, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Probably the media got confused or mixed words (or even I as the main author here). If En Acústico is 6x Platinum that would make it the Best-selling album of the 2010s in Portugal. With its 5x Platinum, Desfado would be the Best-selling album by a Portuguese artist of the 2010s (I've read there have been other 5x Platinum before 2010s). © Tbhotch (en-2.5). 00:27, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've checked the sources and both agree: Desfado is the best-selling album *by a Portuguese artist* of the 2010s. © Tbhotch (en-2.5). 00:30, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the late response but thanks for clearing it up! --213.188.126.19 (talk) 20:04, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
