It helped having multiple versions. I ended up buying two albums just because I wanted the Blu-ray AND I wanted the extra CDs version.
UF is starting to play smart with their albums releases.

The real (?) question I have now is-

1) is UF* surprised by this
2) if they aren't, what data did they have to have made them feel this way and if they aren't do they feel assured that weekly #1 will happen?
3) if they are, will they take it upon themselves to schedule out some last minute things to try and boost sales to secure #1?
(Sorry too lazy to look up the release schedule events/plans)
