Denmark

Michael Jackson The collection has sold more than 30.000 copies already. It has been sold out a period, so it could have sold better.

10.000 sold albums in Denmark is Gold and 30.000 is platin I believe. see www.hitlisten.nu

HIStory has sold more than 150.000 copies in Denmark since it's release making it the best selling MJ album in Denmark. HIStory is # 24 this week on the danisg charts. Still selling great.
 
Week Ending Aug. 16, 2009: King Of Country Boots King Of Pop

Michael Jackson's Number Ones sold 80,000 copies this week and would have slipped from #1 to #2 if catalog albums were eligible to compete on The Billboard 200. It is now just 23,000 copies behind Taylor Swift's Fearless as the best-selling album of 2009. The Essential Michael Jackson sold 43,000 copies and would have dipped from #3 to #5. Thriller sold 34,000 and would have dropped from #4 to #13. This marks the first time since he died that Jackson hasn't had three of the week's top five best-selling albums in the U.S. But this is the eighth straight week that he has had two of the five best-sellers, still a remarkable achievement.

Thriller this week pulls ahead of the Eagles' Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975 on Nielsen/SoundScan's recap of the best-selling albums in its history. Thriller has sold 5,366,000 copies since May 25, 1991, compared to 5,356,000 for the Eagles' compilation. The Recording Industry Assn. of America, which goes back much further than 1991, continues to list the Eagles' album as its all-time best-seller, at 29 million, with Thriller a beat behind at 28 million. Expect movement there soon.

The Essential Michael Jackson is #1 in the U.K. for the seventh straight week. This is the longest run on top in that country since Leona Lewis' Spirit logged a total of eight weeks at #1 from November 2007 to November 2008.

The figures show another 20% drop in sales since last week.

Using the same data, Mike has sold an estimated 12.1 million albums since he died. Of course, this figure is going to be slightly higher when ALL markets are considered - mediatraffic only uses several large markets.

how many units thriller has sold after his death?
and what about the global sales of Number Ones? I think it should be around 6/7 millions, if I'm not wrong. Thank you

Thriller has sold 2.5 million albums since his death.

Number Ones has sold 2.3 million albums since his death. The total global sales of Number Ones was at 6.5 million in 2006. By May of 2009 this rose to 7 million. Current sales this summer take the total global sales of Number Ones to over 9 million!

The figures show another 20% drop in sales since last week.

Using the same data, Mike has sold an estimated 12.1 million albums since he died. Of course, this figure is going to be slightly higher when ALL markets are considered - mediatraffic only uses several large markets.
Click to expand...

How did you count that? It has to be a lot higher because Michaels albums have been topping everywhere. And because he is still selling around 800 000 albums world-wide after the sales drop. Or did you leave J5 out? I think it must be more like 13-15 million. Or even more.
 
Michael Jackson - King of Pop is at #1 for the 8th week in Austria.

Notice that KoP was already #1 for 2 weeks when it was initially released 1 year ago.

2008 at #1 and 2009 at #1 :) And eventhough Austrian newspapers tend to distance themselves from Michael Jackson, they cannot stop him from rocking the charts.

As far as I know, Austria is currently the only country to have a #1 album being a Michael Jackson album, right? :)
