According to Nielsen SoundScan, fans bought 2.6 million solo Jackson and Jackson Five songs in the week ending June 28 – and he only died on June 25. The week before his death, only 48,000 Jackson tracks were sold, which puts that into perspective. Meanwhile, analysis firm Visible Measures claims that Jackson’s Thriller video has been watched nearly 28 million times online since his death.
