Well, going on the album sales you have posted Coldplay are the biggest with average UK album sales of 1.95M per album, Oasis on 1.54M per album and U2 in 3rd with 700k per album.

Was that what you meant? Your post isn't easy to fathom out.

Meh, it's all relative to how you want to look at it.

I just provided 2 points of perspective.

You could argue that Oasis have the biggest album of the three, or that U2 have the best endurance or that Coldplay have the best sales of recent years.

To go worldwide of course then Oasis kinda drop off.

Outside of saying it's a fact, what makes it factual?

How is it a fact? Surely 'biggest band in the World' can only ever be an opinion?

Interesting....what about Linkin Park?
Hybrid theory - 24m
Meteor - 15m
