Try their global chart http://charts.spotify.com/ it should have the streaming numbers And from there you can select Country Weekly or Daily Latest / Week of/ Day of Right now on the Global Chart for the week ending August 24, 2014 #1. Rude 9,786,082 #2. Stay With Me 8,055,353 etc...

http://musically.com/2014/08/20/spotify-top-50-tracks-us/ Spotify Top-50 track streams up 108% year-on-year in the US (exclusive) http://musically.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/spotify-top-50.jpg 162% year on year growth for the UK. Soon to be #2 Spotify market in the world? Though the South Korea streaming market is probably the world #1 right now http://gaonchart.co.kr/chart/streaming.php South Korea Streaming Chart week ending August 23, 2014 #1. 9,035,413 streams #2. 8,857,105 streams #3. 7,593,119 streams etc... It would be interesting if Spotify decide to expand to South Korea.

why use livepopbars when Spotify offer Spotify Chart with Daily and Weekly Streaming Numbers? and has stats dating back since the chart inception? For example, the GLOBAL CHART http://charts.spotify.com/ For the UK (weekly) http://charts.spotify.com/?object=tracks&a...amp;date=latest http://charts.spotify.com/?object=tracks&a...date=2014-08-17 http://charts.spotify.com/?object=tracks&a...date=2014-08-10 etc... For the UK (daily) http://charts.spotify.com/?object=tracks&a...amp;date=latest http://charts.spotify.com/?object=tracks&a...date=2014-08-22 http://charts.spotify.com/?object=tracks&a...date=2014-08-21 etc....

If Billboard doesn't count Pandora, which is many times bigger than Itunes radio, why would it start counting Itunes radio? Billboard Hot 100 is airplay + sales + on-demand streaming. Internet Radio is not on demand.

Example on what the UK Charts could report/look like: Song X by singer Y is #1 this week with 84,321 sales equivalent units. 70,120 downloads, 2,404 physical sales and 1,179,000 streams (equivalent of 11,790 sales). The ratio will be: 70,120 / 84,321 = 83.1% download 2,404 / 84,321 = 2.9% physical 11,790 / 84,321 = 14% streaming

Internet radio won't count. Billboard doesn't count Pandora for example. And Pandora is HUGE in the USA. 70,000,000+ active users.

Looking at the USA market: 2012 RIAA #: Streaming Revenue: $1.0328 billion USD (up 59%) Singles Download Revenue: $1.623.6 billion USD (up 6.7%) Album Download Revenue: $1.205 billion USD-----------------combined downloads at $2.829 billion CD (physical): $2.4856 billion USD 2013 RIAA#: Streaming Revenue: $1.439 billion USD (up 39.3%) Singles Download Revenue: $1.569 billion USD (down 3.4%) Album Download Revenue: $1.234 billion USD (up 2.4%) ----combined downloads is at $2.803 billion CD (physical): $2.1235 (down 14.6%) According to Billboard, streaming is growing some 30-40% this first quarter. Download is down 13.3% overall. Here's my projection 2014 RIAA # projection Streaming: ~$2 billion combinded download: ~$2.4 billion 2015 RIAA # projection Streaming: ~$2.6 billion combined download: ~$2.1 billion Streaming revenue will surpass combined download revenue in the USA in about 12-14 months. Without a doubt, streaming will be the dominant form of music consumption in the very near future.

so maybe 15000 sales for #1 and maybe 3000 sales for #50

Maybe some day down the road when streaming is like 80% of the music business. Billboard doesn't count streaming toward the album charts.

Not true. Streaming is expected to be a $2 billlion business in the USA this year. And be larger than combined download revenue (singles and album) at the end of next year. 2012 RIAA #: Streaming Revenue: $1.0328 billion USD (up 59%) Singles Download Revenue: $1.623.6 billion USD (up 6.7%) Album Download Revenue: $1.205 billion USD-----------------combined downloads at $2.829 billion CD (physical): $2.4856 billion USD 2013 RIAA#: Streaming Revenue: $1.439 billion USD (up 39.3%) Singles Download Revenue: $1.569 billion USD (down 3.4%) Album Download Revenue: $1.234 billion USD (up 2.4%) ----combined downloads is at $2.803 billion CD (physical): $2.1235 (down 14.6%) According to Billboard, streaming is growing some 30-40% this first quarter. Download is down 13.3% overall. Now that Apple is all in with on-demand subscription with Beats Music, streaming will even grow faster.

Doesn't that mean that the album is popular? People are streaming it. Which generate money. If Unapologetic is the #30 most streamed album that week, it means that it makes #30 most money for an album.

In the USA, streaming is within 1.5 - 2 years of surpassing download according to my prediction. The same will be true in the UK too soon afterward. 2012 RIAA #: Streaming Revenue: $1.0328 billion USD (up 59%) Singles Download Revenue: $1.623.6 billion USD (up 6.7%) Album Download Revenue: $1.205 billion USD-----------------combined downloads at $2.829 billion CD (physical): $2.4856 billion USD 2013 RIAA#: Streaming Revenue: $1.439 billion USD (up 39.3%) Singles Download Revenue: $1.569 billion USD (down 3.4%) Album Download Revenue: $1.234 billion USD (up 2.4%) ----combined downloads is at $2.803 billion CD (physical): $2.1235 (down 14.6%) For 2014, download combined is down 13.3% according to Billboard. http://www.billboard.com/biz/articles/news...down-streams-up 2014 prediction: streaming: $1.87 billion (up 30%) download (combined): $2.44 billion (down 13%) 2015 prediction: streaming: $2.34 billion (up 25%) download (combined): $2.20 billion (down 10%)

Any update on when the UK Official Chart will add streaming to the Singles Chart? p.s. A huge milestone for Spotify and the music industry was announced today. January, 2010:------------ 250,000 paying subscribers March 17, 2010:----------- 320,000 July 20, 2010: ---------------- 500,000 Dec 8, 2010: ---------------- 750,000 March 8, 2011:--------------- 1,000,000 July 14, 2011: -----------------1,600,000 Sept 21, 2011: --------------- 2,000,000 Nov 23, 2011: ----------------2,500,000 Jan 26, 2012: -----------------3,000,000 July 31, 2012:-----------------4,000,000 Dec 6, 2012: ------------------5,000,000 March 12, 2013:---------------6,000,000 May 21, 2014:----------------10,000,000 paying subscribers

You can track streaming too. http://charts.spotify.com/ that's the equivalent of Itunes giving sales figure on a weekly basis in every country it operate. each stream on spotify = $0.006 in royalties 100 Spotify streams = $0.60 royalties

It happened in the USA. Is the UK far behind? Physical CD, digital tracks download and digital album downloads are now in decline in the USA. http://www.billboard.com/biz/articles/news...down-streams-up Only streaming is growing: 2011: $650 million 2012: $1.033 billion (up 59%) 2013: $1.439 billion (up 39%)
