The Beatles Crowned Biggest Selling Vinyl Act Of 2010

January 11, 2011
The Beatles Crowned Biggest Selling Vinyl Act Of 2010The Beatles have become the biggest selling vinyl act of 2010, it has been revealed.

For the second year running the fab four have sold more vinyl's in the US than any other act.

Their 1969 LP 'Abbey Road' came first, whilst Arcade Fire's 'The Suburbs' took second place, Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' came third.

The band's back-catalogue made its long-expected debut on iTunes in November last year.

Meanwhile, iTunes is paying The Beatles' royalties from digital downloads directly to the band's company, Apple Corps, it's been reported.
