DirtyPony87 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 As if we need to give more weight to stations that try to drill a song into your skull by playing it every 45 minutes. Mess. Even with mass buying, fan streaming, playlisting, and auto-play, at least consumers are actually interacting with the content, even if passively. The arguments in this thread are grasping at straws. There is no content interaction with radio, unless you call into the radio station and request a song, and who the fûck does that in 2022? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erreur2 La Nature Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 That's a great move. Streaming is way too important on the hot 100 compared to radio and real sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However these changes just makes records and achievements of the past - pointless. I personally don't care, since charts lie a lot of the times, but it really is just another pov - which for stans is essential since they like comparing these stuff. And at this point..aren't charts more important to stans instead of the gp? Not pointing fingers, but not surprised that u as a swiftie would be for this since your fav just got a huge win. Not that it's easy to preserve these older achievements tho..but I guess they can make another chart for just singles? Idk I agree with the bolded part. No matter what Billboard does, music consumption has changed and there is nothing that could make it "comparable" between say the "physical era", "digital era" and "streaming era". During the "physical era", album units could be accumulated faster, but streaming gives a lot more longevity to albums for example. Another example would be that Janet 7 top 10's from one album is different from Midnights 10 top 10's. Streaming allows album tracks to chart so you can have more top 10 debut than in the past. At the same time, it also strongly decrease the potential to extend an era and get tons of hits like in the past. Because of all that, I believe that records and achievements should be considered for the era in which they were achieved. There are only very few situations in which old and new records are actually comparable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex_katycat Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 The game is rigged. Three major record labels control the music industry, ejecting payola into radio stations' playlists. Radio shouldn't be counted into Hot100. It will remain crucial for any artist's performance, but Hot100 should be solely counted on public CONSUMPTION, aka sales and streaming.

People love to scam the system. They aren’t wrong about Taylor on Spotify being omnipotent though - when it auto plays something for me on Spotify, a Taylor song comes up within the first three suggestions without fail, despite me never listening to her music.
