!!!!!!! PLEASE NOTE !!!!!!!
The ET44 is not an official chart
There is no such thing as the official European airplay chart. Unless each and every broadcaster out there is legally required to send the accurate now playing information to a central place, gathering the broadcast data would have to include the detailed analog monitoring of FM airwaves.
Think about it as setting the monitoring stations in each and every major city in Europe, with the software that tunes to the analog FM station, sends the audio through the algorithm such as Shazam, writes the song to the database and submits the data to the main server.
We're probably talking about the multi-million investment: thousands of computers across the continent, each with its own costs and infrastructure... too costly to pay off, even for a government funded project. In our opinion, the most accurate airplay information is gathered by the entities that collect the music royalties, as they are dealing with the data officially submitted by the radio stations.
However, in most countries, the data is submitted at the end of the month - too late for the weekly charts.
