'Idol' alums in Nielsen's 2008 Year-End Report

Nielsen's SoundScan music sales tracking service yesterday released its year-end report for 2008, and a few Idol alums unsurprisingly made appearances. Jordin Sparks led all Idol alums, as she was represented by herself as an artist, "No Air" and "Tattoo" on six different charts. Daughtry and David Cook also made the year-end charts, with both landing in two categories each.
