How many records did Michael Jackson sell?

Answer 1

The exact figure will remain a mystery. We simply don't know.

The media claim that Michael Jackson has sold 750 million units worldwide. The reality is not so simple to determine. Take Thriller for example.

Thriller sold no less than 65.35 million units to date.

There is considerable confusion as to the exact figure. The range is from about 60 to 110 million. It was certified for sales reaching 59 million units in the USA alone. The Recording Industry Association of America or RIAA system of certification is generally accepted worlwide. The Australian Recording Industry Association certified it for 1.05 million units. The British Phonographic Industry (BPI) Association certify the album for 3.3 million units. The Canadian Recording Industry Association certified Thriller for 2 million units.
