First off, I’m sorry if this is in the wrong section. 
 

I was browsing Apple Music this afternoon when I stumbled upon a screen of my recently played songs, and it had a stream count next to them. I knew the numbers were too low to be total streams, but way too high to be -my- individual total streams. 
 

Mathematically, the numbers are just slightly lower than what the same songs receive weekly on Spotify. So my conclusion is that Apple Music is now showing weekly streams for songs.
 

Has anyone else noticed this with their Apple Music? I’m not sure if it’s a new update or something but I figured it’s a pretty big deal for chart watchers.
 

I can try to provide a screenshot from my phone but I would just need someone to tell me how to upload it here in a post on ATRL, I’ve never really done that sorry! 
 

Edit: image embed thanks to @ddddynamite

 

Others are saying they can’t see this yet so maybe I’m a part of a beta test or something.

the predictions would get WAY more accurate

I just checked my app and I'm not seeing this, but I hope this is true because I've been waiting for stream totals from there for forever now

Would love to see what it looks like @WeFoundTrouble

Do you have some way I could send you the pic? I’m not on ATRL much and I’ve never uploaded a picture from my phone so I’m not sure how to share it with you, but if you have a way for me to send it I’m open to whatever 

I'm curious to see the US numbers compared to the rest of the world.

 

You can try imgbb.com  @WeFoundTrouble Make sure to crop out personal info

 

The live (kinda) AM updates and streaming numbers? A slay!!

yeah we can see it. Thnank you

 

oh wow maybe Apple is beta testing but it's kinda cool to see 

I hope they start fully revealing their streams. It would be nice to have that data alongside Spotify.

Yeah I can’t see it but they must be getting ready to roll it out 

Wait a minute…

Maybe weekly streams? Cause watermelon sugar getting more streams than the #1 song on Spotify would be weird

US or worldwide?

Yeah that’s my theory as well, the numbers align with what the same songs get weekly on Spotify. (Theyre a little less on AM, like exile for example, but that’s expected with fewer subscribers)

Apple Music global chart

 

12

=

The Weeknd - Blinding Lights

64

+11

Harry Styles - Watermelon Sugar

 

So that means at least 2M to chart in top 200? Kinda the same as Spotify.

 

 

Seven stomping though

Thanks. I just saw #200 on Spotify is 5M.

#60-70 are 8M+ so yeah Spotify is a bit bigger.

Cardigan stomping on exile 

Also not exile doing 500k in daily Spotify but pulling 1M in here weekly 

 

Was it bad for Taylor ? 

Blinding Lights did 12M last week in Spotify, 6.8M here, it was bad for apple music

I mean, AM has 1/3 the user base and if Exile is doing 3.5M weekly on Spotify, 1.2M weekly on AM sounds about right. I wouldn’t say bad. I am surprised Cardigan has numbers like that though
