Policy

The chart retains a similar system to the existing Top Streaming Songs chart, which is a point-per-play system that determines the values of streams on different streaming platforms. Paid streams will be weighted as one point per play value, freemium streams will be weighted as 0.75 points per play, ad-supported video streams from YouTube will be weighted as 0.66 points per play while ad-supported streams will be weighted as 0.5 points per play. The album chart as well as other genre-based consumption-ranked album charts will employ a single tier (equating 1,500 streams as one album unit) for on-demand audio streams (paid or ad-supported) from subscription services. Video streams will also contribute to the Top 50 Albums Chart.
