MJ is the king of pop, but the Beatles are the kings of everthing. Add Y.S. Bach, Elvis and MJ, and you still don't have a power that equates to the Beatles impact, the Beatles record sales, the Beatles talent, their legacy, etc. No offense to Michael, but NO ONE can out-do the Beatles. Argue it if you want I won't check your response anyway, but if you disagree you just don't know music as well as you think you do. Granted, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but there's a big difference between what we like and what is just good.
ummm, isn't it recorded somewhere that MJ outsold the Beatles many times? I found a recent article;

Seven weeks since his death, Michael Jackson continues to dominate record sales, although his competition lately has not been very strong. Once again, Mr. Jackson’s “Number Ones” (Epic) was the best-selling album in the United States last week, with 98,000 sales, according to Nielsen SoundScan. His other titles, particularly “Thriller” and “The Essential Michael Jackson,” also continue to rack up significant sales; in total, about 3.7 million Jackson albums have been sold since his death on June 25.

The best-selling new album last week was “Live on the Inside” by the country duo Sugarland, which was released by Mercury Nashville through an exclusive retail deal with Wal-Mart. It sold 76,000 copies last week, enough to reach No. 1 on Billboard’s standard album chart, the Billboard 200. (Most Jackson titles are too old to qualify for it.) The next five spots on the chart are a photo finish, with each title scoring between 44,000 and 45,000 sales. Vol. 31 of the pop compilation series “Now That’s What I Call Music!” is No. 2, and another country group, Gloriana, is No. 3 with its new, self-titled debut album, on Warner Brothers. The Black Eyed Peas are No. 4 with “The E.N.D.” (Interscope), the Kings of Leon’s “Only by the Night” (RCA) is No. 5, and Daughtry’s “Leave This Town” (RCA) is No. 6.
THAT, my friend, is just since is death. I didn't want to waist my time proving the other albums, besides Thriller that outsold the Beatles. Sorry to burst your bubble

I definitely disagree. The Beatles made great music, but they aren't anywhere near as influential as him.
