My take away -
As compared to RIAA (United States), BPI (UK), RIAJ (Japan), and an extensive list of other international certifications, Spain seems to be underwhelming. RIAA truly sets an exceptional standard for full certification - Gold, Platinum, Multi-Platinum, and Diamond. The process to qualify for Gold and Platinum as set by Promusicae seems relatively simple. This is my opinion alone.
