Taylor Swift’s “Midnights” continues to sell at a brisk space. The album is projected to spend an eighth consecutive week as America’s best-selling album.<\/p>\n

According to Hits Daily Double, “Midnights” should sell another 71K US copies during the December 9-15 tracking period. The count will convincingly rank as the week’s best, keeping the album at #1 on Billboard Top Album Sales.<\/p>\n

With units from track sales and streams included, “Midnights” should generate about 138K in total US units this week.
