The ARIA Charts are the main Australian music sales charts, issued weekly by the Australian Recording Industry Association. The charts are a record of the highest selling singles and albums in various genres in Australia. ARIA became the official Australian music chart in June 1988, succeeding the Kent Music Report which had been Australia's national charts since 1974. ==History== The ''Go-Set'' charts were Australia's first national singles and albums charts published from 2 February 1966 until 24 August 1974. Succeeding ''Go-Set'', the Kent Music Report began issuing the national top 100 charts in Australia from May 1974. The compiler, David Kent, also published Australia's national charts from 1940–1974 in a retrospective fashion using state based data. In April 1983, the Australian Recording Industry Association commenced by licensing the Kent Music Report and began compiling its own charts in-house from the week ending 26 June 1988 until the present point in time. The ARIA charts are based on data collected from physical and digital retailers in Australia. Data of physical sales come from retailers such as Sanity and JB Hi-Fi, while data of digital sales come from online retailers such as iTunes, Bandit FM, GetMusic and BigPond Music.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ARIA Chart Stores )〕 Starting from 8 October 2006, due to low physical single sales at the time, the ARIA singles chart included online data as well as physical sales. In 2006, it was announced that the Brazin retailing group, comprising major retailers HMV, Sanity and Virgin music/DVD stores would no longer contribute sales data to the ARIA charts.〔(Undercover - Your Daily Music Fix )〕 However, after a five-month absence, Brazin reportedly re-commenced contributing sales figures to the ARIA Charts on 26 November 2006.〔(Brazin Data Returns To Aus Charts )〕 On 1 June 2013, radio program Take 40 Australia began broadcasting the ARIA top 40 singles on Saturday afternoons from 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm AEST on the Today Network, before it is released on the ARIA charts website. All charts are then released on the website at 7:00 pm AEST, with each chart dated according to the Monday of the given week.〔 The charts were previously released at 6:00 pm each Sunday.〔 The website lists shortened versions of the albums and singles charts (top 50 instead of top 100), digital tracks chart (top 40 instead of top 50) and the dance singles chart (top 20 instead of top 25). The ARIA Report lists all charts in full and is available via paid e-mail subscription each week. These reports are uploaded to the Pandora Archive periodically. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ARIA Charts」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
