The Pandora Top Spins Chart shows the 100 tracks that have been spun the most times over the course of the past week, and reflects which songs are currently the most popular on the chart. Tracks that appear on the Pandora Top Spins chart typically have a spin count in the range of 1.5 to 10 million spins per week.
Spotify T100 had 1.4 - 16.1m streams last week in US. So Pandora is really big. Also they have strange recurrent rules on this chart:

In order to ensure that the chart is not altogether static, we've introduced the concept of sunsetting. Research has shown that the ideal number of weeks a track should appear on a chart is 16 weeks, with some exceptions. This allows for a careful balance of unique tracks on a given chart, without running the risk of retiring tracks prematurely in the event that they continue to increase in popularity.

Seein' Red
Dustin Lynch
NEW WK 1 CLOSE
AND PANDORA BLUE, TOO
Dustin Lynch's new single is a far cry from his earlier releases like She Cranks My Tractor, mixing elements of country, rock and pop and into a genre-blending banger about "red hot, red kiss falling off your lips" and various other equally sexy things. And fans seem to be seeing Red, too, with 731,315 Spins this week on Pandora. Lynch is seeing solid growth on Twitter as well, with a 516.3% week-on-week increase in followers, and adding an average of 844 followers per day over the last 90 days.
It's #99 but because of recurrent rules it could be #199 or something.

TIIMMY, TIIMMY, TIIMMY TURNED UP
After his debut single "Panda" became a phenomenon – it's amassed over 138 million Spins on Pandora – Desiigner seems to have done it again with the far more sinister "Tiimmy Turner." The song, which is off the New York rapper's upcoming debut studio album, has racked up more than 7 million Pandora Spins so far and climbed another 10 spots this week. We have a feeling that this wasn't exactly what he meant when he said he was "wishin for a burner," but hey, it's pretty impressive nonetheless.
I hate when they're counting Pandora or comparing it to actual on demand streaming services. I also doubt their new actual on demand streaming service will be that big. I see Spotify slaying, but the premium marketshare is a bit disheartening, their conversion rates are still pretty bad. Hopefully that changes once they roll out their new business plan with premium-only releases.
if Pandora eventually counts for Billboard with their new service and they don't release their numbers either.
The shade. Lemme start using Pandora.
