Is "generation" a global term or country specific? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_music_arti...

DMB doesn't appear (Implying that they have <50 mill sales (but they have 32 mill US Sales).

Linkin Park / Rihana / Coldplay all appear in the global list. Not to mention artists like Ayumi Hamasaki (Which from 1994-present) operated in roughly the same time span as DMB.




Maybe not country specific but at least culture specific. There has to be some sense of shared experience for a generation or else its a pointless term.
