Her largest-selling download song since she died has been what is arguably her most recognizable hit, "Rehab," with 275,000 downloads. In total, it has shifted 2 million downloads, with 1.72 million sold before she died.

During her lifetime, she notched one top 10 album on the Billboard 200: 2007's "Back to Black," which reached No. 2 on the tally dated March 1, 2008.

The album reentered the chart at No. 9 following her passing, climbing to No. 7 the following week (chart dated Aug. 13, 2011).
