At the end of 2019, FMQB closed and all Triple A services were absorbed by Jack Barton Entertainment, LLC (JBE), helmed by Jack Barton, former VP/Triple A at FMQB. JBE has rebranded the Boulder convention as the Triple A SummitFest and continues to publish weekly Triple A charts, including a Non-Commercial album chart, as well as a weekly newsletter (JBE Triple A Report) covering Triple A radio and the music it plays.

{{main|Alternative Airplay}}
"Alternative Airplay" (formerly known as ''Alternative Songs'' and ''Modern Rock Tracks'') is a [[music chart]] in the United States that has appeared in [[Billboard (magazine)|''Billboard'' magazine]] since September 10, 1988. It ranks the 40 most-played songs on [[alternative music|alternative]] and [[modern rock]] radio stations. Introduced as Modern Rock Tracks, the chart served as a companion to the [[Mainstream Rock (chart)|Mainstream Rock]] chart (then called Album Rock Tracks), and its creation was prompted by the explosion of alternative music on American radio in the late 1980s. The chart is based solely on radio airplay ranked by a calculation of the total number of spins each song receives per week. As of 2012, approximately 80 alternative radio stations across the United States are electronically monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week by [[Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems]]<ref>{{cite news|url = http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=BX&s_site=sunherald&p_multi=BX&p_theme=realcities&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=10C3552E00587870&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D|title = The charts|work = [[The Sun Herald]]|date = August 25, 2005|access-date = January 18, 2008|format = fee required}}</ref> The chart had 30 positions when it was introduced in September 1988 and expanded to 40 positions on September 10, 1994.<ref>{{cite magazine|title=Column, Chart Expand Coverage of Modern Rock |magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]] |date=September 10, 1994 |volume=106 |issue=37 |page=6}}</ref>
