F.e. Album „Scoundel Days” was gold album In 1986 year. This mean that sold: 250 000 pcs… but this album was next cetification platinum album in 2009 year – this meant that sold 200 000 pcs.
I don’t underatand. 250 000 psc was sold in 1986 year but in 2009 only 200 000 psc. ? Maybe summary sold is 250 000 + 200 000 = 450 000 pcs . Please help me uderstand this...
Next example:
Album "The Hits Of A-Ha" was gold in 1993 year. This mean that sold 250 000 pcs. but next certfiactions was PLATINUM in 2005 year but this mean that sold 200 000 pcs. ???
