Michael Jackson: The Numbers
Exclusive Look Into The Lifetime Sales Of The King Of Pop

Source: Sony Music USA, Universal Music

As promised here are the total numbers internationally, last updated July 31st 2010. Numbers will include Jackson 5 sales but will be separated accordingly so readers can easily see MJ's solo sales plus Jackson 5 sales. Also, I will break it down with album sales, download/single sales, plus I will include ALL DVD/VHS and other forms of musical release. Remember, these are the actual recorded sales numbers by both Sony and Universal and are not inflated in anyway. There are some sales from certain countries that are very hard to track, even by Sony. So these numbers are about as close as anyone is going to get. As you can see, the initial 750,000,000 units quoted by MJ was not far off. This does not include any pirated, illegally downloaded, or fan made albums, nor does it include any unofficial releases.

Quelques questions que je me pose, si vous avez les réponses, merci d'avance.

Visionary: 5,000,000 => soit l'équivalent de 250 000 boîtes complètes, je suppose.

Ghosts: 300,000 => Ceux du coffret compris ? (Si oui, c'est vraiment une édition limitée). Combien de coffrets ont été vendus ?

Total VHS/DVD Sales: 40,150,000

Pitié un Bad tour .

Il est plutôt question d'un DVD et Blu Ray de clips avec Making of. On a parlé de Ghosts à un moment.

Pour ce qui est des schiffres isitscary, c'est pas moi qui pourrait de répondre

J'ai l'impression qu'il s'agira du Making of de Thriller, je sais pas pourquoi .

Sauf que, petit problème, Sony n'a pas les droits du making of de Thriller.
Ah ah !

Ben non puisque Michael l'a financé lui-même.

sauf que sony a racheter tout ses droits mais je sais pas si ca marche pour tout

non juste le making of (les repetitions) de This Is It, c'est bien ca?

non il aurait payer moins cher

LA SUCCESSION DE MICHAEL JACKSON ET SONY MUSIC RENOUVELLENT LEUR RELATION DE 30 ANS A TRAVERS UN ACCORD IMPORTANT

Les administrateurs spéciaux de la succession de Michael Jackson, John Branca et John McClain, et Sony Music vont poursuivre la collaboration de 30 ans entre le label et Michael Jackson et sa musique, grâce à un accord important qui vient d'être signé.

Et alors ? Ca ne prouve rien. Sony n'a pas tout les droits. Le making of a servi a financé le clip lui-même, que Epic trouvait trop chèr. Il est donc normal que Michael ait conservé ses droits.
Il en va de même pour les titres enregistrés après Invincible, Sony n'a aucun contrôle là dessus.

Le coffret Ghosts aurait été édité à 145,000 exemplaires.

Alors là ... aucune idée
Moins il a été tiré, mieux c'est pour ceux qui l'ont, c'est ma seule certitude
