List of music recording certifications

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Diamond Certified)

Music recording certifications are typically awarded by the worldwide music industry based on the total units sold, streamed, or shipped to retailers. These awards and their requirements are defined by the various certifying bodies representing the music industry in various countries and territories worldwide. The standard certification awards given consist of Gold, Platinum, and sometimes Diamond awards, in ascending order; the UK also has a Silver certification, ranking below Gold. In most cases, a "Multi-Platinum" or "Multi-Diamond" award is given for multiples of the Platinum or Diamond requirements.

Many music industries around the world are represented by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI). The IFPI operates in 66 countries and services affiliated industry associations in 45 countries.[1] In some cases, the IFPI is merely affiliated with the already operational certification bodies of a country, but in many countries with lesser-developed industries, the IFPI acts as the sole certifying body servicing the country or region's music industry. Still other countries not represented by the IFPI have certifying bodies operating independently, such as individual record companies which service the country or region's music industry as a whole.

Though all certifying bodies give awards for album sales or shipments, many also certify singles, paid digital downloads, streaming media, music videos, music DVDs, and master ringtones. Additionally, some certifying bodies have separate threshold scales for works of domestic or international origins, varying genres, lengths, and formats. From the 2010s digital streaming was included in some territories.

Albums

[edit]
Note: Top numbers represent threshold for domestic material, italicized numbers in parentheses represent threshold for international material if different from the domestic requirement. Other notes and exceptions are provided in footnotes below each table.

"—" denotes that an award is not given by the certifying body.

In addition, there is a time limit for an album in one of the categories to reach gold and platinum, which is in one calendar year (for example: albums released on July 1, 2006, has only until June 30, 2007, for a Gold or Platinum award).

^ XIV South Korean physical album sales exceeding 1,000,000 are given the "Million" award.
^ XV Although UPFR's certifications levels have never been clearly defined, it is known that they have been repeatedly lowered since their introduction, due to heavy music piracy and financial crisises in Romania.[60][61][62][63] UPFR's certifications are based on both the units sold and the sales price of an album.[37] Several awards have been handed out since the early 1990s.
