iLike and Billboard Join Forces to Produce Social Media Music Charts

Billboard has agreed to syndicate two new iLike music charts:

+ Weekly top songs added on Facebook
+ Weekly top songs added on iTunes / Windows MediaPlayer

Additionally, live Billboard newsfeeds will soon be available to iLike’s more than to 14 million users.

Billboard will feature two ongoing, weekly charts based on the listening habits of iLike’s more than 14 million registered users on iLike.com and Facebook. The first chart will report on the week’s top 25 “most added” songs to Facebook user profiles. The second chart will leverage iLike’s popular desktop plugins for iTunes and Windows Media Player to monitor the top 25 songs consumers are adding to their personal music libraries on their desktops and iPods. By collaborating with the fastest growing online music service, Billboard will provide its readers with unique access to the listening habits of millions of music fans who rely on iLike to discover new music, connect with friends over music and interact with their favorite artists via iLike’s newly launched Artist Service Platform.

Note: iLike is part of IAC/InterActive. IAC is also owner of Ask.com where Gary works as Director of Online Information Resources.
