Streams of officially licensed music videos on Facebook will soon be factored into all Billboard charts that incorporate streaming data.

The changes will take effect with the charts dated March 27, reflecting sales and streams from March 12-18. Only data from officially licensed music videos will be factored in, with user-generated content excluded from the tallies. Facebook video plays are categorized as ad-supported on-demand streams and represent U.S.-based activity only.

This is just the latest push to incorporate video streams into official chart rankings. In February 2013,began factoring YouTube streams into its song-specific charts, followed by the addition of officially licensed music video streams into the album charts in January 2020. "Music availability and consumption continues to increase at a remarkable rate and the industry has seen incredible innovation across many digital platforms," said."We are excited to announce the inclusion of Facebook's U.S. Premium Music Video streams to Music Connect and to Billboard’s charts, including the Billboard Hot 100, Billboard 200 and Billboard Global 200, further expanding the most comprehensive view of music consumption and trends impacting the business.

"Artists deserve recognition in music charts for the social capital they drive and the social discovery they fuel," added, vp of business development and partnerships at Facebook."Adding music video plays on Facebook to the Billboard charts is an important step in the right direction." Hrivnak continued,"On Facebook, music videos represent so much more than just the video itself -- it’s about creating a new channel for social experiences around music so you can discover a new artist from a music video shared by an artist you follow or a friend in News Feed, connect with other fans who share your passion in a Facebook Group dedicated to your favorite artist, and react to a video in real time as it premieres, all on the same platform.
