A notion of entropy for the non-singular action of finite co-ordinate changes on is introduced. This quantity-average co-ordinate or AC entropy-is calculated for product measures and G-measures. It is shown that the type III classes can be subdivided using AC entropy. An equivalence relation is established for which AC entropy is an invariant.
