We recently reported on how the release of Pink Floyd's PULSE on DVD, along with tours from David Gilmour (with Richard Wright), and Roger Waters (at some shows, with Nick Mason) has resulted in dramatic sales figures worldwide. We know many of you are fascinated with this sort of detail, and almost three month's later, Floyd's domination of record stores continues!

Within the US, the two-disc set has been the top selling DVD since its release. It has held the Billboard number one spot throughout, with the exception of one week (September 16th) when Dream Theater managed to push them down to number two, and another week when U2 bumped them in the same way (more on that DVD below). There are no signs at the moment of sales dropping, and with the lucrative Christmas market looming, sales are expected to stay high.

According to Columbia Records, PULSE has sold over 250,000 copies on DVD to date, which means that the RIAA have certified it "multiplatinum". In terms of total all-time music DVD sales, is in third place behind 2003's Led Zeppelin set, and 2005's "Eagles Farewell Tour" DVD.

With Roger Waters currently performing DSOTM (which appears on PULSE's second disc) on his tour, impetus for this is naturally running high, and the original album also features highly on Billboard's charts at the moment, sitting at number two on their Top Pop Catalog chart.

Turning to the southern hemisphere, the story is pretty much the same. PULSE went ten weeks out of ten at number one, achieving seven times platinum sales, but another of David Mallet's brilliantly directed live shows, U2's Zoo TV Live From Sydney DVD has just pipped PULSE for number one in Australia.

Being released in Australia just a month before U2 tour there for the first time in 8 years, it was inevitable that U2 would go to the top of the charts, which they have been at for two weeks out of two now, with PULSE right behind it in second place both those weeks.

By the sound of it, most of you probably have bought this already. However, if you haven't yet bought your copy of PULSE, you can get it, with a discount, through the following special links: Amazon UK, Amazon US/International, Canada, France, or Germany. Any item bought through these links at Amazon (not just Floyd items) helps with the running costs of the site, and we really appreciate it.
