This sort of goes without saying, but I've noticed a trend lately in the audio leaderboards, particularly in the Classical music section. There is so much great music here at NG, and and most of this music gets burried down around 4.19 - 4.20 rating, rarely to be heard by anyone. With a constant stream of new music from NG users, it's very difficult for even some of the best works out there to get any recognition as "0-bombers" bounce virtually every credible piece of music down to the general mix of hundreds of thousands of techno beats (nothing against techno, but there's just so much of it!). I personally think this is very depressing. Is there any way to sidestep this issue? I have a few ideas, including separate leaderboards for "top 50 rating" and "top 50 most listened to" for each category of music, or perhaps another list for "recently submitted music" for each individual genre. I really wanted to hear some of your ideas...I'm not a NG moderator or anything, but hopefully your voice will be heard.
I believe if you go here you can see the top 50 currently rated:

Thanks, I forgot about the "ideas" forum. I'll be sure to post in the right spot next time. But quick point...you posted a link to the "top 50 currently rated"...my idea specified "top 50 most listened to". I'm well aware of the former, but no need to split hairs in the wrong forum. I'll take a visit to the other topic. Thanks for your help.
