We have passed the halfway point for 2013 and Justin Timberlake's "The 20/20 Experience" is far and away the biggest selling album of the year so far in the United States.

"The 20/20 Experience" had a huge opening week earlier this year where almost went platinum its first week of release in March. So far it has sold over two million copies in the U.S., according to Nielsen SoundScan numbers.

Timberlake's third solo album is far ahead of the second place seller Bruno Mars' "Unorthodox Jukebox", which has sold 985,000 copies this year so far.

The Album of the Year Grammy winner "Babel" from Mumford & Sons takes the third spot having sold 884,000 this year so far. It is followed by Blake Shelton's "Based on a True Story..." which has sold 703,000. Imagine Dragons' "Night Vision" rounds out the top 5 having sold 692,000 copies.

On the digital singles front, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis' "Thrift Shop" is the year's biggest seller, having sold a record breaking 5.56 million downloads for the first half of the year.

"Thrift Shop" inched ahead of last year's mid-year chart topped Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know", which had 5.5 million downloads by middle of the year.

Pink's "Just Give Me a Reason" grabbed the second spot with 3.5 million in sales while Bruno Mars' "When I Was Your Man" came in third with 3.4 million.
