Unless someone is actively choosing to listen to something why should it count towards charts
Radio should count imo. Just a lot less.

chiliMeh, not really. The most popular Spotify playlists are the ones created by Spotify that usually have tons of payola in them
You still have to choose to listen even with playlisting. If you don't listen for 30 seconds it doesn't count.

As long as it exists it will continue to do this

The amount of radio plays is divided by 6000 to get the points. Its weighted the least

The worst is this negating the accomplishments of people who actually worked hard and are getting actual real engagement not just propped up masquerading an industry politics

tbh i like his music but 90m streams in airplay is some fraudulent s***. the definition of what Cole said "getting their streams from machines". i understand the value of radio and that it's a transactional label thing but i would accept that more if it wasn't contributing to people's sales.

Making this point with a 10 minute song in its first week driven by a sad vendetta against an actor
Nov 21, 2021·2 repliesstreaming has been miserably weak all year, if the highest streamed songs weren't so low then radio wouldn't have such a stranglehold over the charts.
compare the streaming numbers to last year, they are way more dominant than they are now.
