Frank Ocean continues to have an eventful month as his debut album channel ORANGE moves 131,200 units and lands at #2. This is great for a few reasons: The first being that the #1 album in America, Zac Brown Band’s Uncaged, was on sale at Amazon for $3.99 (Which is kinda cheating when you think about it). The second reason Frank should feel good is because most of his sales were from iTunes; the physical retailers were instructed to start selling the CD versions of the album as soon as it arrives at the store (Which put it in some store this past weekend).
