“We Are Hunted” Ranks Music Using Social Networks, P2P

Site monitors blogs, social networks, forums, Twitter, and P2P networks to compile a chart of top online songs.

In today’s digital music age its tough to find out what songs are really being played by listeners, and hence a music chart that provides a true snapshot of what fans are listening to. Mainstream music charts only count actual sales, be they physical or digital.

Enter online music chart site We Are Hunted which monitors blogs, social networks, forums, Twitter, and P2P networks to chart the top songs online.

We Are Hunted is different in that it tracks sentiment, expression and advocacy,” reads the site. “Visually driven, intuitive and simple, We Are Hunted seeks to be a daily destination for music lovers looking for their next favorite artist track or song. Through We Are Hunted, music fans can discover new music and more importantly, join the conversation about it.”

The site’s a welcome respite from traditional music charts like the “Billboard Hot 100,” which canvass outdated outlets like terrestrial radio and brick-and-mortar record stores.

Try to find a chart that accounts for true sources of music consumption like P2P.

Check out We are Hunted, it may just give you an idea for some casual BitTorrent downloads.

I've been interested in P2P since the early, high-flying days of Napster and KaZaA. I believe that analog copyright laws are ill-suited to the digital age, and that art and culture shouldn't be subject to the whims of international entertainment industry conglomerates. Twitter | Google Plus
