Is this them with gold discs?Doesn’t that mean they sold 500,000 copies, and where can you see how many records they sold, and which albums and what not?

(Before changing the message boards’ software in August 2007 this discussion had a file attachment, which may return in the future)

It’s clearly for Shameless, but I would be very surprised if they ever sold 500,000 copies of that :D

this must have been somewhere in austria, as the beer on the table is zipfer, which (a) isn’t sold outside of austria as far as I know and (b) tastes like piss.

I don’t know how many copies of a record have to be sold here in austria to reach gold status, but certainliy not 500,000.

perhaps you e-mail the guys and ask ‘em.

Im pretty sure you can get Zipfer in TESCO’S (british supermarket chain) As for it tasting of piss, I wouldn’t know I’ve never drank piss.

For some reason I think Gold is 100,000 and Platinum is 500,000. No offence but Shameless would never have sold 500,000 copies, it would have been hard pushed to sell 100,000 copies.
I have no idea that this is right it just seems to ring a bell somewhere.

It differs from county to country. In Germany you get gold for 100,000 albums or 150,000 singles and platinum for double figures.

In Finland are these limits and as you see it isn’t much;

Single
Golddisk 5.000
Platiniumdisk 10.000

Album
Golddisk 15.000
Platinium 30.000
Double platinium 60.000
Triple platinium 90.000

These were much higher but they changed the limits a few years back.
