1. how many units did the first season of the simpsons sell?

2. are double, or triple, discs counted as 1, 2, or 3 individual sales? similar to how the music industy counts sales...pink floyd's the wall has sold 16 million copies, but only 8 million individual in fact own the album

I'd contact Video Scan for these answers

come'on....one of you "film buffs" has to know the answer to this.

I don't see what being a film buff has to do with how sales for DVD's works but I'm kinda interested in knowing the answer to the second question. I didn't know that # of discs = # of sales on music cd's

It's not # of discs sold, it's # of units sold. There's 1 disc units and multiple disc units.

ANYWAY.....i figured everybody on this site knew everything about everything


....but a multi-disc unit is counted singly by the number of disc is contains...thus, the pink floyd example...

It poses an interesting question...I've actually heard of the same tally of the music biz..."best selling dvd of all time"...what does that actually mean?

Goodness sakes, you dug deep into the archives for this puppy!

Grraaaaaaaaaaaaaaveeeeee Digger!

I was trying to find a link to dvd sales....wanted to find out if Sanford and Son season 2 out sold Twin Peaks Season 1. I'm kinda miffed that Boy Meets World and Saved By The Bell: The College Years are on disc, and for some reason Twin Peaks 2 is no where to be found. Just wondering if it was a sales/volume issue.

As someone who plans to buy the former and already owns the latter, may I just say, God forbid.

I agree!
