Total Album Sales?

[andyuk]

Hi there i am guessing U2 have sold about 140m albums worldwide but what i wanted to know is how this compares to the other big acts still performing and recording in the world today? the acts i am talking about are REM, Coldplay, Oasis, Madonna, Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers etc.

Could someone do a league table for me?

- REM 70 million
- Oasis 50 million

- Coldplay 35 million

McGuiness recently said U2 has sold about 150 million. Estimates I've seen in this forum make it closer to 160 million.
