- Seq. stands for sequence. It sorts albums in discographic order.
- Spotify total reflects release to date (RTD) streams of the track as shown on their software.
- Spotify daily is calculated based on streams over the last 1 day(s).
- AOD (Audio on-demand) reflects total streams through all AOD platforms, Spotify included. The non-Spotify part is an algorithm based figure which considers the main artist's strength and Spotify shares in each market.
- AOD streams divided by 1,500 would provide equivalent album sales (EAS) for the track.
- The 'Song' and 'Album' grey fields at the bottom of the table allow filtering on them.
