Oricon has stamped the end of 2010 with the release of their yearly ranking for “Artist Total Sales“. The ranking is based on the gross total sales of CDs (both singles and albums), DVDs, and Blu-Ray Discs.
We’ve got the list of the ‘top 5′ artists with the highest record of sales down below!
1. Arashi – ￥17.163 billion/￥17,163,000,000 (approximately $204,321,424)
2. Tohoshinki - ￥9.431 billion/￥9,431,000,000 (approximately $112,273,808)
