I could only find this article from 2017 when they added streaming to albums charts, but it is identical to UK's method. https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/music/aria-introduces-streaming-figures-to-australian-album-chart-for-the-first-time/news-story/1dd2970d9ac7da01bb172937ab52d144 Quote “There’s 15 songs on the Ed Sheeran album. You take the top 10 songs from that album in terms of streaming numbers, you take out the top two which would probably be Shape Of You and Galway Girl so the album chart isn’t skewed by a big hit single. You take the average of the next eight tracks, put two back in and divide the 10 songs by 175. Then you add in the physical and digital sales.” Since Cuff It and BMS are obviously Renaissance's top 2, and the album tracks aren't streaming well besides that, so yeah it unfortunately adds up to being out. I personally detest that rule but, a shame.

Most of the albums that I bought for example Rih/Gaga/Katy is because of their multiple hits. Definitely not because of their album tracks.

I hope she does the same with RIAA when she certifies BMS Platinum.
