Yeah I never really understood this, as it seems (IMO) to really inflate how popular a double album actually was. On the other hand, you are paying more for it since its a double, but I always thought the better way to certify double albums would be to count them at 1.5 times the sales. That way it accounts for the higher cost/higher profits, but it doesn't double the actual units sold.
