they have more streams than he has ? it's that simple

I don't think so,becouse his youtube views are 11b while beatles are 4b

I thought it was youtube,and spotify combined becouse his views in yt are much bigger than them,do they count yt views?

It’s not all about you tube. Don’t be blinkered by your fandom.

They do not. They only use Spotify based on the formula.

Yes, they also count youtube views as streams although with a different ratio

I don't know what you mean,but what I know is that 6 albums of mj outsold 13 albums of beatles

thank you

Just out of curiosity, there probably are good reasons, but is History the only album that is counted twice? Or are any of the other (double) albums also treated this way?

I hope this works so they could answer you soon @mjd @al @martin

Why number of sales are changing?
Do they update daily?

Streams are updated daily. The EAS from streams cause movement on their sales.

The total number of albums sold is the Beatles more than MJ, but the Beatles are not more popular than MJ.

Michael Jackson's post-adult studio albums are 6 and the Beatles' studio albums are 13.

Michael Jackson towered over the Eighties the way no superstar before or since has dominated an era — not even Elvis or the Beatles
Above is an excerpt from the thriller album review from Rolling Stone's "Great Album 500"

some of y’all need to shut up
michael had 6 studio albums and the beatles 13
the beatles did it in 7 years and mj in 22 years

the thing is that both found their own way into their success and there’s no excuse to invalidate the other, just SHUT UPPPPP
