Unsurprisingly Hotel California massively dominates this category. If no other Eagles song topped 2 million sales of downloads and ringtones this one tops 6 million with ease. It is one of the very best selling catalog songs from the 70s. The remaining songs from the album sold more than 2 million units.

Everything else listed on this page is uneventful. No song from The Long Road, nor Long Road Out Of Eden, nor Orphan tracks top half a million sales. Despite this the Eagles still sold over 20 million digital units in total from their catalog.
