Five days after his death, DVDs of and about Michael Jackson made up the top five sellers on Amazon.com, and six of the top 10 on June 29.

The top sellers all come from Sony: Michael Jackson - Video Greatest Hits – HIStory; Michael Jackson - History on Film, Vol. 2; Michael Jackson: Live in Bucharest: The Dangerous Tour; Michael Jackson - Dangerous: The Short Films; and Number Ones.

For music, sales of Jackson CDs and MP3s at Amazon.com increased 721 times overnight after his death, according to Amazon spokesman Drew Herdener.

“If you look at our bestsellers list in music, you can see that Michael Jackson albums now occupy the top 10 spots, which is remarkable,” he said.

All of the top 10 music videos at iTunes were also from Jackson.
