미국의 음악 잡지 [[빌보드]]는 1956년부터 '''미국에서 가장 많이 팔린 음반'''을 발표하였다. 1991년까지 빌보드 음반 차트는 판매 실적을 집계하는 것이 아니라 순위를 결정하였으며, 소매점을 대상으로 한 설문조사를 토대로 만들었다. 그래서 빌보드의 주간 설문조사와 연말 차트, 그리고 지금은 사라진 캐시박스 잡지와 같은 출판물의 순위가 다르기도 하였다. 1992년부터 빌보드의 연말 및 주간 차트는 [[닐슨 사운드스캔]]을 사용하였다. 이는 실제 총매출이 아닌 12월경부터 다음 11월까지 12개월 동안의 차트 실적을 측정하였던 이전의 빌보드 연말 음반 차트 선정 방식과 다르다.
