In total, 53 of the 60 countries in the dataset offer at least half of their population access to internet. Each remaining bin represents another 10% range. For example, the right-most bar represents the bin of 90-100% of population with internet, and it shows that there are 8 such countries in our dataset. The above histogram shows the breakdown of internet access for a population by country. Histogram Showing Internet Access For Spotify Charts Countries (Bin=10%) Since access to internet is so crucial to being able to stream, I figured I’d start by taking a look at our 60 Spotify Charts countries and see what their internet access looked like. Pulling from the World Bank World Development Indicators, we can glean a great deal of statistics on a country, from Gross Domestic Product to total alcohol consumption per capita ( it’s Moldova, in case you were wondering). Because the primary requirements to stream music on Spotify are an electronic device capable of the app (computer or smartphone) and a high-speed internet connection, it certainly makes sense that access to these two things would be related to streaming numbers. The QLI is based on several factors, including personal wealth, political freedom, and job security. You could chalk this up as proof that music is a key to happiness, but I was thinking that it makes sense that the same countries that are consistently viewed as the best places to live would also stream the most music. When I was looking at the streams per capita, I couldn’t stop thinking that the list also looked a lot like the Quality-of-Life Index (QLI) rankings everywhere you look, it seems people are talking about how great it is to live in Scandinavia. Nordic and Oceanic countries in particular had high per capita streaming totals. The total streams were normalized by population and the highest-total streaming nations were overtaken by smaller countries when comparing streams per capita.When comparing the streaming totals of the 60 countries in the dataset, the United States, Mexico, and Brazil had the most total streams in a 102 day period from to.This Spotify Charts data represents just a portion of total Spotify streaming. Only the top 200 most-streamed song’s stream counts are made available.This list provides streaming count numbers for each song that gets 1000 or more streams.These top 200 lists are archived back to 2017.Each day, Spotify shares the 200 most-streamed songs of the day globally and in 60 countries.To do a quick “Last Week on Westworld“-style recap: In my previous post, I introduced the Spotify Charts dataset.
