(Country albums are considered those that have hit or are eligible for&nbsp;<em>Billboard<\/em>\u2019s Top Country Albums chart.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also in the top 10 of the new Billboard 200 albums chart,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/artist\/twice\/\">TWICE<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/artist\/miley-cyrus\/\">Miley Cyrus<\/a>&nbsp;debut at Nos. 2 and 3, respectively, with their latest efforts,&nbsp;<em>Ready to Be<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Endless Summer Vacation<\/em>. Both acts earn their largest weeks by units earned since the chart began measuring by units in December 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on&nbsp;multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid\/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new March 25, 2023-dated chart will be posted in full on&nbsp;<em>Billboard<\/em>\u2018s website on March 21. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of\u00a0<em>One Thing at a Time<\/em>\u2019s 259,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending March 16, SEA units comprise 234,000 (down 39%, equaling 308.06 million on-demand official streams of the set\u2019s 36 songs), album sales comprise 21,000 (down 81%) and TEA units comprise 4,000 (down 53%). Notably, the album\u2019s haul of 308.06 million streams for its songs tallies the second-biggest streaming week ever for a country album, after the set\u2019s debut frame (498.28 million).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TWICE scores a career-high placing on the Billboard 200, as the pop ensemble\u2019s new album&nbsp;<em>Ready to Be<\/em>&nbsp;debuts at No. 2 with 153,000 equivalent album units earned \u2013 the act\u2019s biggest week ever. It\u2019s the fourth top 10-charting effort for the South Korean group. Previously, the act went as high as No. 3 with its last two charting sets,&nbsp;<em>Between 1&amp;2: 11th Mini Album<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Formula of Love: O+T=&lt;3, The 3rd Full Album<\/em>, both in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of&nbsp;<em>Ready to Be<\/em>\u2019s 153,000 equivalent album units earned, album sales comprise 145,500, SEA units comprise 7,000 (equaling 10.28 on-demand official streams of the set\u2019s seven tracks) and TEA units comprise 500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like many K-pop releases,&nbsp;<em>Ready to Be<\/em>&nbsp;was&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/pro\/miley-cyrus-twice-albums-morgan-wallen-billboard-200\/\">issued<\/a>&nbsp;in collectible physical format packages (11 different CDs [including exclusives for Barnes &amp; Noble, Target and the group\u2019s official webstore] and two vinyl LPs [one exclusive to Target and one exclusive to the act\u2019s webstore). 86% of the album\u2019s first-week sales came from its CD editions. CD variants of&nbsp;<em>Ready<\/em>&nbsp;contain a standard set of items and randomized elements (such as a postcards, photo cards, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unusually,&nbsp;<em>Ready to Be<\/em>&nbsp;had a vinyl version of the album available on the same wide release date as the CD edition of the album, as most major K-pop titles in the past were initially available only as a physical album on CD \u2013 on no other physical formats (like vinyl or cassette).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TWICE recently scored its second charting hit on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, with the new album\u2019s \u201cMoonlight Sunrise,\u201d spending one week on the list at No. 84 (Feb. 4, 2023 dated chart).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Miley Cyrus\u2019\u00a0<em>Endless Summer Vacation<\/em>\u00a0debuts at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 with 119,000 equivalent album units earned \u2013 her biggest week since the chart began measuring by units in December of 2014.\u00a0<em>Endless Summer Vacation<\/em>\u00a0marks Cyrus\u2019 14th top 10-charting effort, including her releases billed to her Disney Channel character Hannah Montana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of&nbsp;<em>Endless Summer Vacation<\/em>\u2019s 119,000 equivalent album units earned, SEA units comprise 61,000 (equaling 80.61 on-demand official streams of the set\u2019s 13 tracks \u2013 Cyrus\u2019 biggest streaming week ever for an album), album sales comprise 55,000, and TEA units comprise 3,000. Aiding first-week sales for&nbsp;<em>Endless Summer Vacation<\/em>&nbsp;were four vinyl LP variants (including one exclusive to Target and two exclusive to her webstore) and two deluxe boxed sets (one with a puzzle and a CD, the other with a beach towel and a CD) sold exclusively through her webstore. 44% of&nbsp;<em>Endless<\/em>\u2019 first week sales came from its vinyl editions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Endless Summer Vacation<\/em>&nbsp;was ushered in by the smash single \u201cFlowers,\u201d which has spent six weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 (through the most recently published chart, dated March 18). It marks her second No. 1 on the list, following 2013\u2019s \u201cWrecking Ball.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As&nbsp;<em>Ready to Be<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Endless Summer Vacation<\/em>&nbsp;both launch with over 100,000 units, it\u2019s the first time the chart has housed two debuting albums each with over 100,000 units since the Sept. 10, 2022-dated chart \u2013 when TWICE also factored in. That week, DJ Khaled\u2019s&nbsp;<em>God Did<\/em>&nbsp;debuted at No. 1 with 107,000, while TWICE\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Between 1&amp;2<\/em>&nbsp;debuted at No. 3 with just over 100,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both\u00a0<em>Ready to Be<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Endless Summer Vacation<\/em>\u00a0arrive with first weeks so significant that had either arrived on the chart in the four weeks\u00a0<em>before<\/em>\u00a0Wallen\u2019s\u00a0<em>One Thing at a Time<\/em>\u00a0debuted (March 18-dated chart), and posted the same opening-numbers, either could have been No. 1.
