The Official UK Charts are being Leeked!!

i've found a website that is leeking the charts every sunday. all the data is official from the Official Charts Company. so does Radio 1 no-longer have the right to announce 1st to the UK what's at number 1??.

is it legal what there doing ?? because they get published at 1pm every sunday! 6hours before the Radio 1 finish playing the chart.

I think since the Internet was invented and reached plenty of people the charts have always been leaked on Sunday before it was officially announced....and probably quite inaccurate too.

They usually have the full chart up by about 2pm on a sunday, and its 100% accurate

chartsingles always been 100% right and seem the first to update the charts, i guess the data is sent out to places aroud midday, 1pm time and i think radio 1 thing just covers radio play, because i know loads of places that update before 7 but not as early as 1pm, and they are all reputable companies

These charts are the offical top 40's and always seem correct except a few positions being top 200 based, but not to shore on whather they are legal being posted at 2pm.

Shame they arn't the top 75 would help me out no end with this

do we really care if they are leaked or not?
the music from most of them is not worthy to get excited about is it?

i dont think the charts are important any more just who sings the songs
