Spotify & Apple Music Chart Discussion

February 24, 20214 yr

Nice to see a few Daft Punk songs making it in (especially 'Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger' in the top 100, the first song I ever heard from them and probably still my favourite).

I know this has probably been asked many times but how much does Apple contribute to the overall charts compared to Spotify? We don’t get the number of streams of the top songs on Apple but any guesses at the rough figure? Thanks

February 25, 20214 yr

As far as I'm aware no one knows how the numbers from other services compare to those on Spotify, there seems to be a vague idea that non-Spotify platforms are gaining market share but I'm still yet to see anyone back that up with any evidence (not saying that's wrong, it probably is true to some extent, I'm just not sure why some people state it so confidently). As it stands Spotify still seems to be the dominant platform (being high up Spotify but nowhere on Apple results in a higher chart position than vice versa for example).

February 25, 20214 yr

^Exactly, there is no indication that Apple is winning, just look at their chart, ATB is #4 on Apple but nowhere near the top 5 overall

what was apparent is that Amazon gained a lot of users during Xmas judging by Jessie Glynne's exclusive Xmas song... at some point it was doing 4K a day, and the #1 on Spotify wasn't doing so much at that time... but might have been Alexa inflating their figures :D and when Little Mix went to #1 in January, it was also thanks to Amazon, they're not doing that well on Spotify... but think Amazon might only be doing that well around Xmas...

One way to look at it is comparing the weekly totals on Spotify vs the overall weekly streaming sales (Spotify+Amazon+Apple+...) for a song,

but of course not everyone on Spotify is premium...

for instance Olivia did 50K on overall streaming last week, and 3 million streams on Spotify

so the maximum share of the market Spotify could have is 60% but thats assuming most everyone is premium

but I guess it could be around 50% of the market

As it stands Spotify still seems to be the dominant platform (being high up Spotify but nowhere on Apple results in a higher chart position than vice versa for example).

It's difficult to find any data for the UK market, but globally, Spotify's market share is about 32%, with Apple at 18% and Amazon at 14%. They'll all be a bit higher than that in the UK because there are some other players which operate only in Asia, taking chunks of the global market.

Apparently Spotify's global share has been pretty stable since 2015, so the likes of Apple and Amazon are growing but not necessarily at the expense of Spotify.

Neither of them are probably going to come close to toppling Spotify any time soon, but they must be doing some pretty good numbers in the UK - that's just clear from how well songs they are pushing are managing to do well on OCC, despite lack of Spotify streams. Of course that'll be partly down to most (or all?) streams on Apple and Amazon being premium ones too, so in pure streams you don't need as many of them. And yes for the foreseeable you'd usually rather be doing well on Spotify than Apple or Amazon.

Perhaps unless it's a Christmas song!

Shane Codd? Is it November still? Is it the Ella/Tom one of his solo song on HH?
