But why even bother to mention an article that could be very much incorrect since actaul number are not released and all we have are guesses?

And SOME publishers are not all publishers. So that also makes the numbers given are incorrect. You'd need every single publisher to chime in with accurate numbers. And you don't have that. You have some which is not all. So really, that's a very misleading article with incorrect numbers and it's just too USA-centric to be of any real use.

The truth is, there are no way to get accurate numbers. Sales figures are not released. So these guess the numbers articles are just a load waiting to be flushed.
