'Number Ones' best selling catalog album 2010

78.
Michael Jackson, Number Ones, 357,000 (includes 30K digital). This 2003 compilation is the year's #1 catalog album for the second year in a row. Note the low digital number: People want the CD as a remembrance.

Michael Jackson's Live In Bucharest is the year's #1 music video, with sales of 109,000. Jackson also had the #1 music video of 2009 with Number Ones, which posted a much healthier sales tally of 558,000.

I wonder how many families have already bought or will buy something related to Michael Jackson this Christmas. The album is selling ok.,actually great if you look at how other new artists doing except Swift and Boyle(but not to forget the advantage they are having with Christmas).
If one doesn't buy the album there's more chance of buying his DVD or his Game. I wonder are there anyother name which sells so many different products at the same time or same season.
 
Is it possible please to get an updated version of this post, thanks, including TII dvd etc.

ALso some great news, Thriller passed by the 70 million mark yesterday for global sales! It remains the biggest selling album in history beating the 2nd place album by 22 million!
 
If only those 27 something millions fans on FB had bought a copy of MICHAEL! :sigh:

I'm confused rigth now, didn't Thriller sell 100+ million copies? :scratch:
 
Michael should have sold about 100 million units in 2yrs right. including albums, singles, dvds, music videos. and ringtones
 
Billboard: King of Pop Still Rocks Record Sales
Posted: 28 Jun 2011 02:57 PM PDT

A little thing like death can’t stop the King of Pop’s record sales. According to Billboard, the music sold since Jackson’s death accounts for 33 percent of all the cumulative sales of his catalog in the Soundscan era (since 1991).

Through the week ending June 19, 2011, Jackson has moved 32.3 million albums total. Since his passing, the singer has sold 10.6 million units.

The biggest-selling albums since his death are “Number Ones,” which moved 2.74 million since June 2009. Followed by Jackson’s 2009 “This Is It” soundtrack album to the hit movie with 1.67 million. Then there is “Thriller” (1.49), “The Essential Michael Jackson” (1.38) and “Bad” (550,000).

As for single tracks, Jackson sold 16.3 million copies since 2009. Led by “Billie Jean” with 1.26 million, the top five bestsellers are “Man in the Mirror” (1.23), “Beat It” (1.11), “Thriller” (1.04) and “Smooth Criminal” (872,000).

According to Billboard, the bulk of those sales came in the six months following his death (11 million tracks; 8 million albums). In 2010, he sold 3.7 million tracks and 2.1 million albums. It is estimated that he will sell 3 million tracks and 1 million more albums by the end of 2011.
