I do not agree with the official answer here... infact the best one is D.

the result - "had sold twice as many copies of movies on tape as all the other stores in town had sold on DVD of the same movies" --- so the relative number of movies won't make any difference.

What is the source ?

first eliminate A,D and E, because of awful construction. In formal written English, we generally do not write "is because" or "which is why". Moreover "which" has limited applicability in GMAT --- for non essential relative clause and object of a preposition. Eliminate...

I was struck between A & C Can you please explain what is wrong with C? Is it just wordy? Or there is some other solid reasoning to eliminate it? "which" has limited application in GMAT - 1. for non-essential modifier 2. as an object of a perposition. in C --- "which" is use...
