U2, not that I'm a fan, but someone said something about it over on General BJ Discussion..... Think they've got about 15000.

They're not bands and I'm proud to say I don't own a CD by either of them, but I know for a fact that Mariah Carey and Garth Brooks have both hit 100 million. I'm pretty sure Madonna has hit it too.

I think my friend Michael Jackson has sold even more then Mariah. Thriller only sold 24 million copies in the states. I think 40 million world wide or so...
