It will track the one-hundred most streamed songs on the internet, from sites such as Spotify, Deezer (is that an indie band said with a cold?), Napster, We7, Zune and ChartsNow, so instead of tracking downloads which people have invested in it will be only for songs listened to over the internet for free.
Now I have enjoyed streaming software but I’m not a big fan: I’d rather own the music and listen to it at my own convenience, however and wherever I want, especially without adverts, but I can see the appeal of the sites and understand their popularity.
It will be interesting to see how the chart differs from the download chart, when there has already been talk of how Adele’s ‘21’ album has been commercial successful and it’s not on streaming sites. What impact has streaming had on other artists who have embraced the technology?
