TNS Global website
TNS set up its TAM panel at the start of 2007 and released data to ABS-CBN and GMA starting September 2007. Currently, TNS now supplies data to ABS-CBN, Adformatix, J. Romero & Associates, Discovery Channel, CSM Media, PHD, and Club Media Asia Inc.
TNS Media Research Philippines officially released its national television audience measurement data on February 2009. The panel, composed of 1370 representative households, covers urban Philippines and reports on 7 sectors namely NCR, Suburbs, North Luzon, Central Luzon, South Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. NCR and Suburbs can be aggregated to show ratings for Mega Manila and all sectors can be aggregated to report national ratings.
Below is a table indicating the different areas with each area’s corresponding panel sample size and universe.

National program rankings will still be divided between daytime and primetime.
Ratings for a particular day will only be up for 24 hours, after which it will be replaced with the next day's ratings.
Note that the daily program ratings are based on day-after ratings information and are subject to slight changes upon reprocessing for improved sample sizes and validation after every week.
For reference, unit used is household ratings. Daytime refers to shows that fall within the time band of 0500h to 1800h; primetime refers to shows within the 1801h to 2400h time band. In cases where a program breaches the borderline, it is considered to fall within the time band where the majority of the program minutes are located.
