An obvious marketing gimmick. When you have exclusive rights to an album, you don't run out of stock on the first day. They're taking the "It's out of stock!! You gotta get this MUST have album!!!" approach.

I hope it works.

Best Buy purchased 1.5 million, but only received a first shipment of 700,000. Take it however you want.

Maybe they underestimated how many people would buy online, and put too many CDs in the shops...?

Hahaha.  This is hilarious cause HMV had skads and skads of them. No lie I looked at how many HMV had and thought "How do they ever expect to sell that many?"   There's no way in hell Best Buy is outta stock. Not a  chance.
