Some good genres and albums mentioned there, but there is no way you can Eagles Hotel California on a country rock list, try one of the earlier Eagles lists for that. Hotel California would be a good candidate for the Arena Rock 70s list.

I barely see a difference between arena rock and AOR, but I understand it. So, I'll handle the Arena Rock lists.
70's 1. Boston - Boston 2. Journey - Infinity 3. Van Halen - Van Halen 4. Police - Reggatta De Blanc 5. Survivor - Vital Signs 6. Eagles - Hotel California 7. Scorpions - Fly to the Rainbow (Before their metal days) 8. Queen - A Night at the Opera 9. Alice Cooper - Love it to Death 10. Blue Oyster Cult - Agents of Fortune 80's 1. Rush - Moving Pictures 2. Journey - Escape 3. Toto - Toto IV 4. Def Leppard - Hysteria 5. Billy Squire - Don't Say No 6. Genesis - Invisible Touch 7. Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet (let's swap that out from hard rock with Who's Next by the Who. Bon Jovi are more arena.) 8. Van Halen - 1984 9. Whitesnake - Whitesnake 10. The Cult - Sonic Temple

AOR and Arena were pretty much the same thing when AOR was around, as the concept of an AOR band was to have a commercial sound that would fill out arenas. Which is why half of their albums were loaded up with commercial sounding material, with the real nuggets though hidden away as album tracks.
Arena though as I said before, can pretty much encompass any band or artist that is commercial and could pretty much fill out arenas. I expect an AOR list to be pretty select in the bands that are included but Arena is going to be so diverse. Btw That Scorpions album is hardly arena rock material, it's local German scene early 1970s and not even a really good album. The Alice Cooper album is probably too weird and I'd go with either Killer or Billion Dollar Babies instead as they're a bit less weird. Also Survivor Vital Signs is 1980s and def belongs on an AOR list. Survivor were very much an 80s band as well.
