See why beyonce was banned.

Beyonce sold more than 618,550 copies of her
new self-titled album last week - her best
showing ever. But not everyone is a fan.
It has now been learned that Target has made
the decision not to sell the CD.
The retail titan announced earlier this week that
they would not be carrying "Beyonce" in stores
since the singer had decided to release the
album in digital format first.
"At Target, we focus on offering our guests a
wide assortment of physical CDs, and when a
new album is available digitally before it is
available physically, it impacts demand and
sales projections," Target spokeswoman Erica
Julkowski told Rolling Stone. "While there are
many aspects that contribute to our approach
and we have appreciated partnering with
Beyonce in the past, we are primarily focused
on offering CDs that will be available in the
physical format at the same time as all other
formats."
For her last album, 2011′s "4," Beyonce had
actually sold an exclusive edition through Target,
with six additional tracks.
Other stores will get hard copies of the album
beginning on Wednesday, and by Friday at the
latest, Rolling Stone reported.
But even then, the full "Beyonce" experience
won't be available to all shoppers. In
accordance with a long-standing policy, Walmart
will only carry a softened-down "clean" version of the album.
