Will Adele outsell Britney if she releases A4?

[Eda]

Britney is still the best selling female (PURE) album artist who debuted last 25 years 

Adele is second with 63M Pure Album Sales

Britney is first with 77M Pure album sales 

14 M difference . Will Adele's next album sell that much? Or not? Then Why?

I don't think so, nobody are buying albums, just fans... GP are more into streaming so, at her best Adele will gain 5 million more only.

The industry change a lot in 5 years, right now all it's about Sales Plus Streaming

Not with this pandemic but I could be wrong though.

It depends... Adele has a pretty hardcore casual fanbase if that makes sense. Anyone 40+ years of age that bought her last albums will likely buy the CD of her next album. Purely because a lot of them don’t use streaming. Although, I believe Adele will encapsulate a lot of the younger audience and less of the mature audience with her next era. Partly due to her weight loss, which will cause a lot of younger fans to gravitate towards her because of her ‘Looks’. A lot of people are still like this unfortunately. 
 

I’m torn. She could easily do 1m+ first week. I’d like to see how many people bought ‘25’ digitally vs physical CD’s. If the majority of her album sales came from Physical sales for ‘25’ then I have no doubt that she could easily push 10m for the next record, and then a further 2.5m - 5m for A5 in the mid 2020’s

I have absolutely nothing against Adele, but I hope not
