In any case.. I don't even see Dire Straits on any of those lists... I do love Dire straits though.

Yeah, I'd like to make some more bets with your buddy, if he was willing to put money on Dire Straits (??) selling more overall albums than Pink Floyd. I don'tt think we needed an official list to know that there wasn't much chance of that. I'd guess Dark Side of the Moon alone has sold more than all of Dire Straits albums

The bet is my freind, who says Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler has sold more than Pink Floyd

-Please help me.

I think you win the bet.
