Spotify Adds Most Viral & Played Charts, Track Counts

The rollout began several days ago, but now it's official: Spotify has added song play counts to every artist's top tracks, showing their total number of global
plays since October 2008. Initially rolling out for the desktop client, play counts
will be added for all Spotify users in the coming weeks. Alongside the track counts, the music streamer has also launched two Spotify Charts.

The Spotify Top 50 is the top 50
most-streamed songs of the previous week, market-by-market. The Social 50 is the top 50 most-shared songs of the previous week. These are the songs that
have been most actively shared to other Spotify users, including via Facebook and Twitter.

Updated every Monday, Spotify
Charts is is an embeddable widget that can be set to show the most played or most ciral tracks in any of the 28 markets where
Spotify is available
