Most of those arbitrary rules make no sense. Plus, I don't think it would be possible to determine which tracks are listened as part of an album tbqh.

This is what they do in Scandinavia, so the technology already exists.

Option 2 is the best solution on paper. I don't feel budget and technology are the main problem for OCC to execute Option 2 as the similar technology already been used in Nordic countries. The main problem would be time constraint instead because it need take time to identified the streaming figures and might causing OCC cannot published the full chart on Friday afternoon.

 

Honestly I wouldn't be mind OCC revert back the full chart reveal on Sunday if OCC decide to use the Option 2 because:

1) They should have enough time to compiled the chart.

2) Not to mention Thursday stream are accurately compiled.

3) Radio 1 chart show back to the pre-July 2015 era. :kink:
