Sirius and XM said some airplay data will now be reflected in the weekly Mainstream Top 40 chart in Billboard Radio Monitor.
“This marks the first time that airplay from a non-terrestrial broadcaster has been factored into the weekly results of Billboard Radio Monitor’s pop airplay chart,” Sirius stated.
Data from one channel on each satcaster will be used at first.
