LOS ANGELES — Exclusive scoreboards and analysis of mainstream contemporary hit radio (CHR)/top 40 were posted yesterday (Wednesday, 4/20).
A similar overview for rhythmic hot AC is forthcoming.
In the middle though is our in-depth summary of March 2016 PPM results for rhythmic CHR.
Mirroring the criteria for mainstream CHR, rhythmic CHR stations that rank in the top 20 in a PPM-market (6+, March 2016) comprise the following charts.
Qualifying PPM-market mainstream CHRs in March 2016 are typically two rankers better than their rhythmic CHR counterparts (#8.58 to #10.92, 6+) and have 6+-shares nearly +1.5 greater than those compiled by rhythmic CHRs (5.20 versus 3.73).
Nielsen Audio only releases audience estimates for stations that subscribe to its services; for that reason, ratings stats in this exclusive RadioInfo rhythmic CHR analysis are limited to stations that pay Nielsen Audio for its data.
Rhythmic hot AC is the next format to be analyzed.
