The continued success of Mariah Carey kind of makes me smile. A few years ago, her big record label, I forget which one, dropped her. Ya know how much they had to pay her to drop her? EIGHTY MILLION DOLLARS. That's eighty, with a Y on the end. One of the most amazing things I've ever seen in business. They paid her $80 million to hang it up! Within about a year, she was signed again and took off like a rocket again. The label who dropped her said she was done. Talk about laughing all the way to the bank!

As for digital sales... Taylor Swift... she recently received her second RIAA Digital Platinum Single certification, for "Our Song." (Downloaded single.)
