listen to wfmu just for one more day through soundtap and then we,mat get through to the next round. at the moment we only have listening through soundtap and our competitor has 12 listeners so wfmu is losing. help us, ie wfmu win and become more well known. | |

It is kind of tough though. You know WFMU listeners show up at Soundtap and they're first thought is... hmm.. other stuff to listen to | |

Bodah the Human Yoda:
Hi all! Soundtap has a competition going on between 64 of what they think are the best non-commercial stations in the country. They are ranking the stations based on how many people spend how much time listening online through their site. WFMU knew nothing of this until it started. They pitted us today against WOBC, Oberlin College's freeform station. We are losing, I think! Which feels weird for me, because I first did a radio show at WOBC, for 2.5 years from 1994-1996. |
|
Mon. 3/19/12 9:32pm
mike noble in dc:
anyone else find it suspicious how wfmu lead by double digits all day and within just a few hours we've fallen back by 25 hours? | |
|
Mon. 3/19/12 9:33pm
tomasz.:
the number seems to be permanently stuck at 4. like, it was 4 before i registered and it was also 4 after i started listening. not sure what that's about :-/ | |

chad from oregon:
hmmrph. it looks like I've already maxed out my 90 minutes of WFMU listening from the gizmo. | |

Mon. 3/19/12 9:33pm

shenanigans! or could it be the obc double agents at WFMU? | |

I have never rated wfmu by the number of listeners, and I'm not about to start. | |
|
Mon. 3/19/12 9:35pm
mike noble in dc:
and why is no other station even coming close to WFMU and WOBC numbers? could this be driven by a secret cabal of WFMU haters? | |
|
Mon. 3/19/12 9:35pm
pp newtape:
i think the main issue with soundtap is that the other stations are all college radios so all the on campus students or just the students all tune in and support their own station all the time so they have a fairly consistent large base of listeners whereas wfmu listeners are so divergent and global and at different timezones and working and weirding and waiting and this wobc college.. we know wfmu is the best anyway. and the only true independent freeform etc etc. | |

Jesse Jarnow and Doug Schulkind from WFMU also first did radio at WOBC. It's a great station -- worth checking out (some other time when I'm not on air). |

i think some of those computer music majors at oberlin must've done something sneaky... | |
|
Mon. 3/19/12 9:38pm
Andrew Waterloo:
The other thing is, for me to listen to WFMU I just load up my mp3 player and click on the playlist item. Usually by the time I get the website I'm already at least 10-15 minutes into my session. | |

jjj, what are you on about? nothing remotely elitist about this station | |

In the mean time though, good that students are feeling passionate about music! | |

Mon. 3/19/12 9:51pm

jj james -- trade you some kdvs listens for wfmu listens. we both could use the help. | |

Ike:
@Mike Noble@9:36, that was my experience too, and that was in the *90s* when there was less competition -- very little or no Internet radio, etc. | |
|
Mon. 3/19/12 9:51pm
diane in tokyo:
@tomasz- maybe we're so elite we just didn't notice | |
|
Mon. 3/19/12 9:52pm
mike noble in dc:
hey maybe that's the ticket... we need to team up with a station in another bracket and share listens. kinda like how baseball teams in different leagues will have a joint ticket to get the last guy on the all star squads. | |
|
Mon. 3/19/12 9:53pm

Speaking of Spacemen 3, has anyone heard the Wooden Shjips remix that Sonic Boom did? Amazing stuff. | |

the soundtap signup was definitely having problems earlier today. the javascript was dumping messages to the console which was interesting, but it appeared the server was botched. anyway, now that i'm off the road i'm listening for credit. oh and some nice psychedelic horseshit now? | |

oh no shjips. anyway i love this blasted guitar | |

G:
Phil's another piece of evidence that the British Invasion really started bubbling under in theater before it came out in the open in music. Davy Jones was a young stage actor in London before becoming a Monkee. Phil Collins' first big break as as child actor was as the Artful Dodger in the original early-60s London production of _Oliver!_ | |

WFMU's listeners on the Madness site have been stuck at 4 for over a couple of hours now- when my 90 minutes ran out it didn't change. But on Soundtap's main page the top show now is this one with 40 odd listeners, fishy... | |

@Diane, I think the Soundtap site is just swamped. I noticed that kidn of thing earlier today too. But I think we are actually getting credit for all the listens we get there, although their site doesn't reflect it in all places. @G, yes, it's like that, only it's powered by fairy dust. @penelope, hiya! |
