I'm confused by the list. What do the numbers mean? Millions? If so, why is Pink missing from the digital artists section?

This is only certified albums & singles right?
Very unrepresentative for singles list, because most just don't care certifying them.
Fine for albums list though.

There's something wrong with the digital sales since Britney's not there and she has sold around 30million.

Oh well. You should change it to Top Certified. Because Pink doesn't seem to care about certifying her singles. Lol
And is this singles and albums combined? Or just singles?

Her singles aren't certified. Her label is ****
She has sold ~30 million digital singles now.

Taylor would still be higher even if only her country-radio singles were counted.

Lol this is fake and unreliable. It doesn't represent their actual sales. Some artists are undercertified.
