I think you mean MOR, not AOR. The former pretty much killed the latter.

AOR was essentially top 4O for albums.

As the '70s went along Top 40 AM was less and less interested in guitar-oriented hard rock. But AOR FM welcomed it, giving lots of airplay to arena rock staples from Zep to VH & ACDC.

The "Yacht Rock" (lol) acts got airplay on Top 4O as well as AOR, giving them a sales advantage over hard rock acts.
