Something I published has WAY more downloads than view/listen counts 2024-05-14 13:09:06 (edited 2024-05-14 13:11:49)
Somebody just recently brought this certain detail to my attention regarding this old piece of music I made. This song has a little over 2,000 listens, yet it has over 17,000 downloads.
I'm not sure when this happened, I even tried to use the Wayback Machine to check, but it did not give me any useful clues, only that it at least did not occur before 27/5/2022, which only leaves the fact that it happened between from after that time ago up until today, 14/5/2024.

I'm also not sure if this topic is applicable in this area, but I am concerned, I simply want an explanation or an investigation to this anomaly, if at all possible, in case might have been something suspicious or malicious.
