Before Billboard transformed its Comprehensive Album Chart into The Billboard 200 at the beginning of the 2009-2010 Chart Year, Billboard would move albums into recurrency, or "Catalog" status after 78 weeks (down from 104 at an earlier time. I would agree Billboard should do a Comprehensive Singles Chart, but even though I compile my Airplay charts I post here without recurrency rules, I think 26 or 30 weeks, with at least three negative weeks in a row, and below the top 50, would be acceptable to move the song into recurrency on the Hot 100. The reason Airplay Charts are pushing songs into recurrency so much faster is that it leads to songs getting an "inflated" peak position. When I do the charts without recurrency rules, some songs turn out 20 spots lower than they would be if there was no recurrency policy.
