‘Eminem Show’ Sales Good News/Bad News For Industry
Billboard director of charts Geoff Mayfield spoke with the New York Daily News on Eminem’s huge album sales week that saw 1.3 million copies of ‘The Eminem Show’ sold. Mayfield says “it’s a good-news/bad-news scenario” for the music industry. “Eminem had huge sales. But kids now clearly do not go to the record store as much as they used to,” he explained.
