"Triple J has moved the Hottest 100 music countdown so it no longer falls on Australia Day, the radio station has announced.

Almost 65,000 people voted in the radio station’s nationwide survey, which was prompted by debate over the appropriateness of holding the countdown on a day that marks the beginning of British invasion and colonisation.
According to independent analysis of the responses, 60% voted in favour of changing the date, while 29% said they did not support the change. A second poll of more than 700 18-to-30-year-olds validated the results – 55% said the Hottest 100 should move."
