Another interesting point I gathered from the Idol Boards regarding Taylor's UNDER THE RADAR CD...

Talk about a great title; TAYLOR got it right; it is UNDER THE RADAR!!!
I believe I also read that his album sold 2000 albums in TAYLOR's first three days on AI.

Excellent point. Now what would REALLY INTEREST ME is to see the company -- Laseredge give some actual figures of how many units have actually been sold thus far. Taylor has been on TV for about 10 weeks now. So, with a linear increase per week, that would make close to 60,000 CDs sold thus far ( and I am being very conservative because the more well known he is, I expect the more people will want to buy his CD, so the increase isn't really linear ).
Where can we get the actual figure ???
This of course does not include the sad fact that a lot of COPIES his CDs are being hawked at eBay without him getting a single royalty.

It is my understanding, and someone correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the number of UNDER THE RADAR albums sold has been surpressed via a court order by AI against that store. The number, if known, would be a headline grabbing news story which would damage the climax of the AI season.
I'm assuming then that the sales are going very well. When I ordered my copy it was on a three week backorder. I have my copy and it was worth every penny.
I didn't know about the gag order. That says a lot. It would be nice to know just how many copies have been sold. Hopefully after the show we will be able to find out.
