Well, Drooly, if you saw the Wailing Hobos on some radio station list, it means you are getting exposure, might sell some CDs.
Plays are plays, a lot of real radio charts are based on playlists. OMD charts are based on plays.
Certainly if you put songs on your page and a lot of people listen, that's a good thing. Then you get on the charts and other people listen. Some might buy a CD. Some people get nice gigs from success on OMD charts too.
Just because there WERE gamers, doesn't mean it's all gamed. It's not. There are a lot of honorable artists.

I don't want to be negative here, but I still don't get it.....
Why does anyone care about OMD charts or stats???
When the number of plays is considered, then gaming becomes an issue....- which makes the whole thing meaningless....
The only "charts" that have any meaning to me is the actual number of CDs sold. To strangers, who shell out real money because they like the music.
All these OMD charts are just smoke and mirrors.....
sorry - that was a negative post.... - but it's an issue that makes me wonder......

Incisive mind you have there, Miss Bowers.....
uh.
I guess my point was that the only charts that matter to me are created by those who love the music....
I'm so freaking bored with numbers that are manipulated by ego or money....
ack.
