The Pop 100 Airplay is a chart created in 2005 and released weekly by Billboard in the United States. It measures mainstream radio airplay, and is one of the three component charts, along with the Hot 100 Singles Sales and Hot Digital Songs charts, that determined the chart positions of singles on the Pop 100 chart. When the Pop 100 was discontinued by Billboard in June 2009, the Pop 100 Airplay followed suite, since the chart only contributed to the Pop 100.
The Pop 100 Airplay is often mistaken and confused with the Top 40 Mainstream chart. The Top 40 Mainstream chart and the Pop 100 Airplay both measure airplay of songs on mainstream radio stations playing pop-oriented music, but the Pop 100 Airplay (like the Hot 100 Airplay) measures airplay based on statistical audience impressions, while the Top 40 Mainstream uses the number of total detections. The Pop 100 Airplay replaced the Top 40 Tracks chart.
