I kind of judge by what I see at tag sales and flea markets, how big an artist really is. Sure there are Billboard and sales figures, but when I see a lot of used GL albums around, it makes me feel good to know how well he has sold. And I have seen many of them for sale through the years. I copied all mine to cds, except the ones he signed, and sold them off. I also made some cds for my cars/truck, that have the songs I like best.
Interesting thought, if you copy from an album to cd, will you lose that supposedly different sound that the album has? I doubt it as the cd always is a direct copy. As I said, I don't see any difference.
