New RIAA Certifications: 4 Flicks...Live Licks!!!

Four Flicks reached an amazing 19x Platinum certification in US for shipments of 475,000 copies (4 DVD's x 4 = 1.900,000). It's the top certification for a video in US so far.

The surprise here is that Live Licks got a GOLD certification for shipments of 500,000 copies! OK, it's a double album and with 250,000 copies it's enough, but the album sold 81,000 copies so far with only 2 weeks on the Top 200! The certification is for shipments, that's sure.

The Stones are #10 on the all time list with 66 millions copies sold and this is the 40th GOLD award for the band, #4 on the all time list.

PS: Only Metamorphosis, No Security and Jump Back didn't have certifications so far but Jump Back will be Gold soon because sold 321,000 so far and spent 21 weeks on the Billboard 200 (#127 this week).

Hey, what does this "shipment" means? The product done in US and then sold all over the world?

The amount of copies in record stores, I guess. So, they are not necessarily sold to the end-user.

Amounts shipped can be those in stores as well as those in middle-man warehouses.

"but the album sold 81,000 copies so far with only 2 weeks on the Top 200!
I would wager a significant number of those will start appearing in used bins.

They've started marketing "Live Licks" on TV here in the states. Gotta get rid of those other 169,000 copies somehow.
