That proves nothing. Radio is different because the 15 million who heard Kellie Pickler's "Best Days" were not necesaliry listening to it for all 30 weeks it was out.
So sorry you went through that work to post something that is not valid. 
And as for recurrents, that is also a different story because you have not heard the song for awhile, etc.
Well you must not listen to much radio - especially CHR - because you'd be hard pressed to listen to it for at least 2 hours a week and NOT hear a top ten song 1-5 times a week... Assuming that song spends about 20 weeks in currency alone (not to mention the recurrency spins after it's major impact, it is NO DIFFERENT than playing a song on your computer for 20 weeks.
I easily listen to the radio for 2 hours a week. And yes I hear a top song many times in a week, but no stations in Michigan keep songs in high roation for 20 weeks
CHR is constantly (at least mine..and i know several others) changing its playlists up and more new songs are coming weekly. I can see a song going for 10 weeks of course. and i even said 20 is like the limit. your first post was talking about 30 or 40 weeks +
