Billboard reports the package – which presents five decades of definitive anthems and some of the most recognizable hits of all-time by the iconic Boston band – earned 19,000 equivalent album units in the US in its opening week, the sum of which includes 10,000 units from album sales.
The new compilation also starts at No. 4 on the Top Rock Albums chart, No. 7 on Top Rock & Alternative Albums and No. 36 on the Billboard 200.
Billboard ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album.
