Something to consider...
What Beyoncé's 'Non-Marketing' Illusion Says About the Current State of Music
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ernest-owens/what-beyonces-nonmarketin_b_4457117.html
...especially this line "With the absence of new music from Taylor Swift and Adele this year (whose presence stand to rival a few of Mrs. Carter's records), the stage was set for Beyoncé to have a year to dominate."So I guess if Taylor and Adele released an album this year, Bey wouldn't have moved any units.
