Mediabase - Top 40/Mainstream - 2017 Year-End Chart

I posted the Billboard year-end rankings yesterday. Here are the Mediabase numbers.
The 2017 chart year started with the Sunday November 20, 2016 published chart and, most likely, ended with the Sunday November 12, 2017 published chart, if the range remains consistent with the previous couple of years. I'll adjust the date range, later, if I got it wrong.
Mediabase counts ALL spins, including recurrent play. They only have one rule of which I'm aware: a track needs to have spent, at least, one week as a "current", during the chart year, in order to be eligible for inclusion in the year-end rankings. Year-long recurrents are ignored, though I have shown where they would've ranked among the top 100 had they counted. Artist spin-weighting is, similar, to the methodology I used for the Billboard rankings.
I don't have access to all spins, just the top 50 currents and recurrents from All Access, so these numbers can't, and won't, be exact. From my experience, these numbers are "good enough" and these rankings should be, fairly, close to Mediabase's, official, year-end rankings.
This is, also, a good time to clarify a note of confusion that, usually, creeps up in these threads, every year. The YTD rankings on All Access use the January through December time frame. Mediabase's published year-end charts run mid-November to mid-November, which is why these rankings look a little different than what is on All Access. The published year-end charts, available in the year-end PDF, usually, go online around the second week of December. Keep an eye out for it, here:

I've been tabulating this chart every year, this decade. Here are the rankings from past years:

The 2017 chart year started with the Sunday November 20, 2016 published chart and, most likely, ended with the Sunday November 12, 2017 published chart, if the range remains consistent with the previous couple of years. I'll adjust the date range, later, if I got it wrong.
Mediabase counts ALL spins, including recurrent play. They only have one rule of which I'm aware: a track needs to have spent, at least, one week as a "current", during the chart year, in order to be eligible for inclusion in the year-end rankings. Year-long recurrents are ignored, though I have shown where they would've ranked among the top 100 had they counted. Artist spin-weighting is, similar, to the methodology I used for the Billboard rankings.
I don't have access to all spins, just the top 50 currents and recurrents from All Access, so these numbers can't, and won't, be exact. From my experience, these numbers are "good enough" and these rankings should be, fairly, close to Mediabase's, official, year-end rankings.
This is, also, a good time to clarify a note of confusion that, usually, creeps up in these threads, every year. The YTD rankings on All Access use the January through December time frame. Mediabase's published year-end charts run mid-November to mid-November, which is why these rankings look a little different than what is on All Access. The published year-end charts, available in the year-end PDF, usually, go online around the second week of December. Keep an eye out for it, here:

I've been tabulating this chart every year, this decade. Here are the rankings from past years:
