MusicBank + Inkigayo newly revamped *~Chart Ranking~* calculation system


Once again...! This is something of crucial importance.

I actually done this few weeks ago. But now, the more 'refined' version.
Just thought of sharing this now because the comeback is really by the corner.
And many sites are coming up with this already to prepare our
shields and fans and arrows and canons and knives
..
..
and this time, we will make it For-The-Win.

====================================================

Music Bank changed their calculation system for chart ranking calculation system (yet) again~
SINCE @ 14.05.2010 (Friday)

They announced their changing of system calculation of Friday's episode.

OLD
Digital source (50%) (yes it plays a huge %) + Album Sales (15%) + Appearance in music programmes (15%)
+ KBS Fondness Scale via detailed survey check (20%)
NEW
Digital source (+Mobile) (60%) (yes it plays a huge %) + Album Sales (10%) + Appearance in music programmes (20%)
+ KBS Fondness Scale via detailed survey check (10%)

Requirements for sales-wise has had decreased from (original) 15% to (now) 10%,
while appearances on music progs has increased from (orig) 15% to (now) 20%.



==Curious how they calculate their K-Chart's Fondness Scale?
Audiences' Gender, Region, Age range; and then get the audiences
to choose 3 of their favourite songs out of the nominated songs there.
After taking in each response, they will then continue with the calculation
for ranking of each song on the K-Chart.


==Curious how they calculate their Appearance in Music Programmes?
TV : RADIO
7 : 3


~~Requirements for songs' nomination on the Kchart:
Only songs in the Top 100 of Digital Song Ranking Chart.~~
Which simply means, the ranking of Digital Chart is highly important.
