Coming closer to the idea of AMA awards, I found the below info and comparison to Grammy Awards on Wikipedia.org:
Differences between the AMAs and Grammys
While the Grammys are awarded based on votes by members of the entertainment industry, the AMAs are determined by a poll of music buyers, and as a result is more of a representative of public opinion. The “big three” established awards shows (AMAs, Billboard Music Awards, and Grammys) compete for prestige and television ratings, with the Grammys nominally rewarding quality and both the AMAs and Billboard Music Awards rewarding popularity. Stories of artists being pressured to participate in one awards show over the other have been fodder for tabloid gossip and controversy.
The only other major difference between the Grammys and the AMAs is that the AMAs do not currently have an award for Best Single/Record but the Grammys do
