Adele’s 25 will be Available for Streaming…Eventually

British bookies are offering 4/6 for Adele’s new album “25” to break the record for United Kingdom album sales in a single week. Forecasters said that “25” could finish the week with three million sales.

Selling 26 million copies of her second album, “21” worldwide.

So Pandora was able to secure Adele’s album even without her permission because of some technicalities. “It was a flattering luxury knowing we sold more records than anyone in a week but it’s also nice seeing people continue to be passionate about music in the next generations”.

The Official Charts Company confirmed the numbers and notes that “Be Here Now” was released on a Thursday so only had three days of sales registering towards its first chart week. In Nov. 23, the album had already surpassed the previous single-week record for album sales set in 2000 by NSync’s “No Strings Attached” which sold 2,416,000 in its debut week.

In the age of music piracy and streaming, Adele has done what was once thought to be the impossible, she’s sold more than 3 million copies of 25 in the first week of US sales, shattering records, and that sales number could still grow yet.

Adele is set to make music history with her album “25”.

Report says that iTunes Store saw 900,000 downloads on its first day for Adele’s “25”, outperforming Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” which only sold 662,000 digital copies in its first week.

Adele’s decision to keep 25 off streaming sites emerged nearly a year after fellow pop star Taylor Swift cut ties with Spotify and took aim at bosses for failing to properly compensate artists for using their work.

However, she claims the fans who haven’t already purchased 25 will “probably” get to hear it online in the near future. The eighth album by the Barbadian shape-shifter Rihanna, “Anti-“, reportedly will be available exclusively to subscribers of the high-quality streaming service Tidal during its first week of release, which is expected to commence on Friday.

“Being in such an fantastic relationship with someone that’s so there for me and so loyal and is really part of my core now”, Adele said.
