Best Answer

The American Music Awards (AMAs) were first created in 1973 by ABC, when the network's contract to televise the GRAMMY Awards ended. They differ from the Grammy Awards in that sales and public reception are directly factored into consideration for the AMAs, but not for the Grammy Awards.
