Hi chart fans! Billboord reports on the sales of the Beatles reissues in the link below. But the bit I found amazing was this:

"Since SoundScan began tracking music sales in 1991, the Beatles have never sold less than 1 million albums in a year. The group's best year came in 2000, when the release of its hits package "1" helped the band sell a total of 7,289,000 in the U.S."

One million a year. If you look at the data properly, in this lovely graph they supply, there are only 3 years out of the last 18 where they dip below 2 million:

55 million sales in 1992-2008, 3.2 million sales average/year, a record sold every 10 seconds. Just in the USA. Not too shabby.

I know some people wondered if these remasters would be profitable. I'm sure Apple & co are very happy
