According to the Wall Street Journal, a million copies will be given away for free to the public 72 hours ahead of the July 4th release date, worth a reported $5 a piece for each, paid ahead of time by Samsung. The only question remains, whether Nielsen Soundscan will count those sales towards the release. Platinum, already.
