In a nod to the increasing share of music that is getting listened to via streaming platforms, Billboard has added a Streaming Songs Chart to its weekly listings. Last spring Billboard started charting top songs played by On Demand services, this list will cover those and add the songs played most by streaming services.?Macklemore & Ryan Lewis holds the top spot on Streaming Songs with 1.45 million total streams in the U.S.?Services included in the reporting are ?such services as Spotify, Muve, Slacker, Rhapsody, Rdio, MySpace, Xbox Music and Guvera.?
The data comes from Nielsen Soundscan and Nielsen BDS data -?Nielsen SoundScan?measures U.S. point-of-sale of recorded music product.?Nielsen BDS?tracks U.S. radio airplay and music streams. Both systems power many of the?Billboard?charts. Nielsen recently reported that music purchases are at an all time high, up 3.1% over last year, driven by digital sales.?For 2012, sales of albums and track equivalents are down slightly at -1.8% vs. 2011. Digital Albums are up 14% and Digital Tracks are up 5%. CD sales declined 13%.
Pandora meanwhile has posted a recap of sorts of last year on its blog, noting that last year listeners to Pandora created 1.6 billion stations and listened to more than a million different songs by 100,000 different artists. I?m thinking that data is probably at least as deep in terms of sample size as the stuff Nielsen is collecting?
