In reply to Qua.

Forced to buy an album for $16.99???
Who plans on spending $1.29 for a few singles, but scraps that idea just to buy an expensive album???
People forget that '4' was leaked for almost a full MONTH and STILL did over 300K. Forced??? Gimmick???
I Am ... did 482K.
B'Day did 541K.
You do know that Bey albums come every 2 to 3 years apart, right? With every release your starting from scratch when it comes to gaining popularity from the public again (because the hype from previous eras die down).
