A month to the day after its release, Britney Spears’s "Blackout" album is over and out.
Even with the enthusiasm of the holiday sales, fans have pretty much turned their back on the CD after buying 430,000 copies.
On Friday morning, "Blackout" stands at No. 59 on Amazon.com. It’s also No. 13 on iTunes, which means that its downloading days are dwindling as well.
A new single, “Piece of Me,” is getting some airplay including on the nation’s top pop station, New York’s Z-100. But that doesn’t seem to make much of a difference.
“Piece of Me” is registering as only the 37th most downloaded single on iTunes, the place where anyone who wanted it would get it at this point if they didn’t want the whole album.
