48000 albums & 696000 songs sold via iTunes in 1 week

In only a week's time after AC/DC made their entire back catalogue available on iTunes, the band sold already more than 48000 albums and 696000 songs on Apple's digital music library.  These are only sales figures for the USA, so the real numbers are probably way higher.
The band who have been long against digitally publishing their songs, and were amongst the last ones standing, finally made its back catalogue available on 19 November.

The most successful album is Back in Black (15000 albums sold) and Thunderstruck is the most successful single download (85000 purchases a week)



Oh, and by the way.... Stay tuned for some exciting news in the next couple of days!  It might be related to the band's Bedlam in Belgium in 1977....
