Who gives a fuck what happens on Billboard?

I'm sure there's a Creed album or two that has outsold a Macca album or two. 

So is the world's biggest douchebag (Scott Stapp) better than PM? Or at least he was for a few months early in the millenium, apparently.

It's good to know that Poison (15 million sold) are better than the Velvet Underground (uh, 20,000?)

Billboard quotes? On a power pop board?
