Top 100 Best Selling Music Artists of All Time

Музыка

This list is based upon a system called Equivalent Album Sales (EAS). This takes into account multiple facets of an artist’s success beyond simple album sales, and helps to show a more complete look at the best performing music acts of all time.
Conversion ratio between formats:
Studio album: sales of the original album (ratio 1/1)
Other LPs: sales of compilations generated thanks to the album (ratio 1/1)
Physical singles: sales of physical singles from the album (added to CSPC total with a ratio 3/10 for 2-tracks, 5/10 for EPs and Maxis)
Digital singles: sales of digital singles from the album (ratio 1.5/10 for CSPC total)
Streaming: EAS of all the album tracks (ratio 1/1500 for Audio stream and 1/6750 for Video stream)

    @@TheDidymusBrush because the music industry is corrupt, so called official sites stated the Beatles and Elvis both sold over a billion records each🤣 now these same sites quote a more realistic number although still too high,like 600 m. Check out Chartmastersfor the most accurate sales by artist as can be, these are not overinflated. This you tuber used information from there to get his video results.

    This is just wrong. Album sales are harder to get today because of streaming. Simply listening to an album on a streaming platform will not generate a sale. Back in the day you had to buy the album and that would immediately generate a sale. If anything to modern age streaming hurts sale numbers.

    Good list, but I think its a shame that some artists like Elvis and Frank Sinatra have most of their sales discredited due to a lack of resources prior to 1960. Especially when you consider that most of their music was sold prior to 1960. I also think it is unfortunate that some artists like Whitney Houston, Prince, Phil Colins, and Led Zepplin are surpassed by more recent artists like Emanim, Drake, and The Weekend due to Spotify downloads, which did not exsist in their time.
