Doesn't Billboard count summer as June 1 to August 31 as opposed to June 21 to September 23? Or do the dates mean sales/airplay that fall in between those dates rather than Hot 100 charts that fall between those dates?

According to the description, it adds the the Hot 100 chart points from the chart dated June 11. So, it would be airplay starting May 25 and sales starting May 23.

It says the final chart will be posted Set 8, so it will probably end for airplay on Set 6 and, for sales, Set 4. (But the tracking could end a week earlier.)

The difference between the magazine chart date and the actual period always confuses me haha, but I think it that is it. Again, according to the description on the page.

Damn that's confusing, but thanks. :)
