Million if its a LP
Half a mil if its a single

U can go platinum in different countries. For example. you're Ricky Martin and in USA you're actually a nobody. But in Russia u still sell a million, so you're platinum in Russia.

What is there not to understand?? Of course they count as two, cuz less people buy double cd's, cuz of the high price.
