[Porfie]

Does anyone know the official amount of copies The Dark Knight sold or when we will know? I hope it sold at least 1 million, buit was wondering if thats actual sales or just amount sent to stores.

I'm unable to find a concrete answer, just speculation such as:

and

I'm sure the final count will be well over the 1 million mark, waking people up to the possibilities of Blu-ray and attracting more converts. Keeping eyes peeled...

No official "word" on the first week total BD sales...all speculation points towards the 1 million mark, but I have not read any confirmation yet.

Someone please post sales info here as soon as you get it! Thanks!

From what I've been able to gather, sales numbers for The Dark Knight will be released next week. Stay tuned!

Spoke a tad too soon. Was just able to find confirmation that TDK sold over 1 million units:

"Indeed, the analyst said BD trends continued to look promising following 1 million unit sales of The Dark Knight, among other titles, and prices hovering around $25, compared to $18 for standard DVD"

Hoping for more detailed (and official) numbers in the upcoming days!

Thanks! Me also I cant wait for more detailed numbers! Wal-mart sold 150,000 magnavox players? i thought the total blu-ray sales for black friday was 147,000 ?

Greenfield said Wal-Mart’s aggressive stance toward Blu-ray, which included blowing out 150,000 Magnavox players in select stores for $128 on Black Friday, in addition to increased shelf space, would contribute to standard DVD revenue falling 6% in 2008 from previous estimates of flat sales.

There's like 4 or 5 similar threads already . Blu-ray insider maxpower posted that TDK was tracking 1.5 million world wide for the first week. We should know something "official" by late tomorrow or Thursday.https://forum.blu-ray.com/showpost.p...&postcount=617
