I think Occam's razor can be applied here. An album that has supposedly never
sold 500,000 copies finally goes Gold, and less than two months later, goes
Platinum. Either someone has suddenly stumbled on missing sales records
accounting for at least half a million copies from the previous decades and
decided to update their records (one certification at a time) or someone at the
RIAA decided that, accurate sales records or not, the album is so well-known
that it probably went Platinum a long time ago. And if it really didn't, who
would argue against it?
