Productores de Música de España

Productores de Música de España, a.k.a. PROMUSICAE (Productores de Música de España, eng: Spanish Record Charts) is a trade group representing the Spanish recording industry.

The charts are calculated once every week on Sundays. They are based on retail music sales within Spain for the week from the preceding Saturday to the Friday prior to calculation. The new charts are usually uploaded to the official PROMUSICAE website on Sunday night Spanish continental time.

According to PROMUSICAE, a music album that has shipped a minimum of 40,000 copies to music retailers can be certified gold, and shippings of over 80,000 copies can be certified platinum. The singles or downloads that has shipped a minimum of 10,000 copies to music retailers can be certified gold, and shippings of over 20,000 copies can be certified platinum.

Currently, download singles have much more importance than physical singles. In 2006 only one physical single was certified with sales of over 11,000.
