-Career Sales Janet has outsold Britney.
-Touring Gross: Janet has out grossed Britney with the same amount of tours
-Global Charting Stats: Janet has more top 10s on the global chart according to Mediatraffic
-Singles: Janet has more legendary singles
-Impact: Britney is a product of Janet
-Iconic/Memorable moments: Janet's nipple is more well known than anything Britney has done, and will do.
Ultimately it's really stupid to compare two artists who are past their primes, one being 46 and the other 30. Britney will be favored more here because she's "current", so her appeal to today's generation is bigger than Janet's. In about 10 years looking back, Janet will be viewed as a pioneer, while Britney will be a representation of the consequences of fame. Janet is a legend comparable to her peers, while Britney is a pop icon remembered for her bubblegum breakthrough.
Janet had the superior career when you include everything.
