Romanian record charts

In February 2022, Billboard inaugurated Romania Songs, a streaming and digital download-based chart compiled by MRC Data.

[3] The Romanian Top 100 significantly lacks archives for the late 2000s; at that time, Nielsen Music Control and Uniunea Producătorilor de Fonograme din România (UPFR) began publishing charts which reflected the most-broadcast songs on radio stations and television channels throughout Romania.

[12] Media Forest had previously begun publishing weekly radio and television airplay charts on their website starting with July 2009.

[14] The Romanian Top 100 was replaced with the Airplay 100 on 26 February as Romania's national chart, also compiled by Media Forest and aired as a radio show on Kiss FM hosted by Cristi Nitzu.

[15] It measured the airplay of songs on radio stations and television channels across the country,[16][15][17] but was ultimately cancelled by Kiss FM after its 28 November 2021 issue.

[18][19] Also in November 2021, UPFR resumed publishing airplay charts, in collaboration with the monitoring service BMAT, where the songs are ranked by their plays and audience numbers.
