Spears saw her numbers jump for the fifth straight week as sales of her "Baby One More Time" leapt from 181,000 last week to 229,000 this week, helping her keep a firm hold on the number one slot.

The Offspring's "Americana" saw a bit of a bump as well from sales of 109,000 last week to 129,000 this week as the album grabs the number two spot on the album chart. Lauryn Hill, 'N Sync, and the Dixie Chicks saw sales increases as well as they rounded out the top five.

In all, 17 of the top 20 albums (and 44 of the top 50) saw their sales figures go up over last week's numbers. The only top 20 artists who actually saw their sales figures dip were Foxy Brown (whose "Chyna Doll" drops to number 10), Silkk The Shocker (whose "Made Man" slips to number 15), and R. Kelly (who sees his "R." slip to number 16).

The week proved to be a thin one for debuts, as Collective Soul scored the highest new chart appearance of the week at number 21.
