Another sign that Streaming Media has more than arrived. Billboard has expanded their Hott 100 chart to include streaming media Data. From the paidContent.org blog:
Under the new Billboard Hot 100 formula, radio play will average about 55
percent of the chart’s total points, digital for about 40 percent, and streaming
media for 5 percent. While streaming media is relatively small, it’s still well
ahead of sales of physical singles, which will account for less than 1 percent
of the chart’s new formula.
