Anyone know?

 

Sales + Airplay + Stream but what's the break down?

The chart is based on unit sales, streaming and audience impressions. If a track has 200k of sales and 70 million of audience impressions, it will have approx 270,000 points from there plus streaming which usually makes only a little difference (5 per cent on average).

 

This is what I know from the top of my head without further research. Does somebody have the official info?

 

Basically, a #1 song can have 400,000 points coming from sales only without any airplay. Or 150,000 points from airplay without any sales.

Sales

 

1,000 Sales = 1 point on the BBHot100

 

For example, Lady GaGa's 448,000 sales for Born This Way was worth 448 points.

 

Airplay

 

1,000,000 Audience Impressions = 1 point on the BBHot100

 

For example, Lady GaGa's 84,000,000 AI for Born This Way was worth 84 points.

 

Streaming

 

The actual weighting of streaming is unknown. It is known that youtube videos do not count towards the BBHot100, but there are others that do, such as Perez Hilton's website. Streaming has never really been officially defined in terms of points, but there have been occasions where one song has had higher points on sales and airplay than another but was pipped by streaming.

 

OVERALL

 

Sales Points + Airplay Points (+ Streaming Points) = Final Point Tally

 

For example, for Lady GaGa's Born This Way; 448 + 84 (+ Unknown Streaming) = 532 points (approximately)

Seems to be right!
