And Adele doesn't count. Hers is the only album in the streaming era and at the risk of being proven wrong I'm going to guess there's no way she sold 17 million physical copies total of all of her output.
Having said that, maybe some of those other figures are combining streaming with physical media?

Give thanks and praise to AI for deluding the world. SeriousLee wrote:
Yeah, I guess depending on their sources - which they do not cite. It's probably compiled from several sources - likely using AI. The RIAA-compiled list, on Wikipedia, shows that Hootie album of having 14.58 million sales in the U.S. (21st place) and DSOTM having 15 million in the U.S. (18th place).

Yeah, I wonder...From what I can find Dark Side of the Moon has sold almost 22 million copies in America so the varacity of that list might be questionable.
I was looking for DSOTM, so I find that list questionable also.

As I went down the list I stopped at #10...what? Wow.

Trump isn't a techno anything; just an idiot. But whoever put it in his head that we should own Greenland, Cuba, Venezuela, etc. certainly has some idea about this stuff.
Whoever sketched this up on some AI fantasy notepad has obviously never been to Magdalena Bay. The idea of that place as a defense base is laughable. Good place to see whales, and get a fish taco, but it's easier to reliably get a supply truck to Guantanamo Bay.
I mean, it never sounded totally crazy but by definition, the billionaires aren't leading it. Tim Berners-Lee for President! Or something. If we were a technocracy, UBI would be a thing, right? And Trump and Musk and all the wealth extractors would be sidelined? I guess it's time to do some more reading of stuff I don't understand so I can not understand better.
