Hi everyone,
although it seemed pretty unlikely to me, I wasn't able to find an answer to this question, so here goes:
What's the difference between the Top Songs of All Time list with 10,000 entries and the Top 6000 Songs of All Time list?
http://www.acclaimedmusic.net/year/alltime_songs.htm
and
http://www.acclaimedmusic.net/Current/1948-02s.htm
respectively.
I know they're not the same because I checked, with many songs in a different position or missing from the 6000 list (ones with a rank better than 6001, obviously).
So, why is it that there are two lists? What's the difference in calculation, and which one do you consider "better"?
How do the 6,000 list and the 10,000 list differ?

I think you just stumbled across last year's list?

Are you saying they're the same list but one is just more up-to-date? Why's one 4000 songs shorter then?

Because the most recent update expanded the size of the list.

Now I have changed the "Current" folder to "150822" (YYMMDD).
For those who are curious about old updates, there are also these folders, with hundreds of pages within each:
061024
070731
091108
101128
111110
140727
