The early results are in, and it's estimated that Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience has moved 980,622 copies this week, easily placing it at number one on the Billboard 200. The debut marks JT's best first week in sales ever, with FutureSex/LoveSounds selling a very respectable, but inferior 684,000 copies its first week.
20/20 will serve as the highest selling first week for a male artist since Lil Wayne sold 964k for Tha Carter IV in September 2011.

[Update: Timberlake Tops The Charts Again, "20/20" Certified Platinum]
The initial numbers are in, and it looks like Justin has topped the charts for a second week running. JT moved 317,037 copies of 20/20 in the last 7 days, topping Lil Wayne's first week for IANAHB2. The "Suit & Tie" singer's new effort is now certified platinum after his impressive opening week. While these are just the initial numbers, the official count should not be far off. We'll have to wait and see if JT can stay on top for another week.
