And airplay is being used too, but we're not doubting that? Even though there you also can't choose what you listen.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that, but it's still basically the same as radio, and I would never argue against getting rid of radio, when it's still the biggest way people hear music (and Pandora seems to be the second biggest based off those numbers).

rowlet Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Alessia finally im rooting for her Starboy poor it not Closer being back in the top 3 why does it seem like Fake Love is always jumping from 9-11-9-11-9-11 etc I wonder if Shape of You's music video will push it back to #1. The top 10 is very interesting right now with 3 songs in close competition for #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess my biggest concern is the top 100 on Pandora seems kind of random. Like Slumber Party being top 100 while a lot of hits right now aren't lol? The other metrics are at least a little more correlated with each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not doubting that the platform itself is popular. Well Spotify hit 100 million last June, and 40m were paid by September. Free users can't select songs unless on desktop or a tablet. So that doesn't really matter. Majority of streams likely come from shuffle play in general - hence the importance of being apart of top playlists.

Hector Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 A lot of people have missed this tidbit: In order to ensure that the chart is not altogether static, we've introduced the concept of sunsetting. Research has shown that the ideal number of weeks a track should appear on a chart is 16 weeks, with some exceptions. This allows for a careful balance of unique tracks on a given chart, without running the risk of retiring tracks prematurely in the event that they continue to increase in popularity. Tracks that are on a "hot streak" are exempt from the typical sunsetting rule. Hot streak refers to any track that has not yet reached its peak rank and spin count at 16 weeks. We want to capture music on the rise, so these tracks will remain on the chart past the 16-week sunset so long as the song has reached new heights within the past two weeks. So any big streaming hits that don't appear in their top 100 are recurrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but it should be clarified that their data will still count towards the H100. The thing is that with Next Big's recurrents we won't even know their position, let alone their spins.

I mean that's a solid concern, but it couldn't be an argument as to why Pandora shouldn't be included in the H100. But yeah the charts are all a bit ''messy'' EDIT: Hectors post kinda takes away your concern too, I guess?

Points for 1 stream were weighted down though so that balances out a bit. And points for 1 sale were increased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
