People Still Buy Music: Daft Punk set to sell a ton of records this week

All that Daft Punk hype prior to the release of Random Access Memories apparently really worked. Billboard is projecting that the French duo will sell about 300,000 copies of its new record in the U.S. alone this week, putting the group easily on top of the Billboard 200 chart. That will be the second biggest debut week for an album this year, behind only Justin Timberlake’s The 20/20 Experience, which sold almost a million copies its first week out.
