Just a really quick question. Do my listens increment when I view my own music? It doesn't seem to increment when I refresh the page/click on my own link, but for some reason when I submit something new the listens start at 1.


Support a local composer. All you need to contribute is $10.00 per hour, for sixty years.
Or, you could just visit a profile page and rate/review stuff. Hint-ety hint hint.

Yes it does count, but it only counts like every 2 hours or somethin like that, so that you can't sit there and refresh the page to get yer listens up.

I think it actually only counts unique listens per 'NG' day.
So you could listen to your own song once per day, and it will count once, but not any more.
I think. =X

For those tech saavy ones, NG has an IP monitor. Basically it won't record multiple DL's or views from the same IP. Same reason why you can't vote many times. Of course it resets after the NG day goes by.
Also another thing I found out is that it's maxed at 3 votes/DL/views from the same IP zone.
