December 12, 200915 yr im surprised Beyonce has only managed 2.5million with I am Sasha Fierce so far considering all the smash hit singles on it (5 of those top 20 as well!!) I bet its suffered a LOT from illegal downloading!! A sign of the times me thinks!
December 13, 200915 yr Has Mariah Caray Xmas and Celine Dion Special times really both sold over 5million in the States? That's almost as much as Thriller according to these figures! I hope you know that this isn't the total "Thriller" figure. "Thriller" peaked in the 80s, when sales where not tabulated by Soundscan (the Nielsen company)....so the album has actually sold somewhere above 30 million in the US. There wasn't much activity from MJ after the first part of the 90s, so it is understandable that the album wouldn't shift major figures in the period this system was activated (1991-2009).

I bet its suffered a LOT from illegal downloading!! A sign of the times me thinks! I would have expected more sales too, as she has released 9 videos for this album (2 for Ego).

I wasn't sure so thanks for clarifying. I am still surprised the Mariah and Celine Christmas albums have sold so much. Makes the figures a bit redundant though if not complete.
