2) John and Paul are more iconic though. The Beatles had the two best frontmen of all time, The Rolling Stones had one lesser frontman... you work it out!

3) Other: Pattie Boyd is the answer.

4) Your comparing The Beatles early catalogue to The Rolling Stones later catalogue. Guess what? The Beatles matured too. In fact, The Beatles wrote I Wanna Be Your Man for The Rolling Stones... what does that tell ya?

5) The Beatles' songs sold the albums, not the covers.

6) That wasn't The Beatles though, was it? Also John Lennon had some awesome solo work and most of George and Paul's were good too.

7) They didn't stop touring for that reason actually - it was cause the gigs were simply too chaotic and it limited artistic direction a lot, having to write things that would work in a live situation.

8) How is this relevant?

9) See above.

10) The Beatles were a much better looking and stylistic group... no one's gonna argue that!
Its just a thread the provoke heated debate and not to be taken seriously, everybody on here really knows the Beatles were superior.
