From the RIAA wesbsite....
"The RIAAŽ GoldŽ and PlatinumŽ Awards program was launched in 1958 in an effort to create a standard by which to measure sales of a sound recording. In the beginning, there was only a GoldŽ album award for the sale of 500,000 copies. As the industry grew, other awards were developed. The PlatinumŽ award (1,000,000 sold) was created in 1976 and with the advent of the compact disc and the subsequent increase in sales, the Multi-Platinum award was created in 1984. On March 16, 1999, the RIAAŽ launched the DiamondŽ Awards, honoring sales of 10 million copies or more of an album or single."
It's 500,000 SOLD, not shipped.
Isn't it Human Clay that in the past year was Certified Diamond, after they SOLD 11 million copies?
