Although, there still is a ping of heartbreak when a song you like is disliked by the general public.
If I felt like that I wouldn't keep uploading songs I've written myself, even though the highest rating I've got is 2.6.

Plus, not everybody who listens votes.

Leave the voting system as it is, it's not like the numbers actually do anything. I use the voting as a personal thing, eventually I should have enough tracks voted so I can see if a block of songs I like is coming up.

And about the genre thing, people seem to be really hostile to things they don't actually know. From the comments I've got on my songs, you'd think I'd taken a poo poo in everyone's ears.

Edit: ugh, removed the last comment I made here, it sounded to whiny

Well I was trying to play the songs which had the most polish. Some of the songs I've recorded have more glaring faults with them, others as I've said were more experimental. I'll just play the ones I like, warts and all.

Seriously. On GhettoRadio, I did a hijack show for Easter Sunday and Monday. Note that I mean a single show. I downloaded the entire Bible from Librivox and, because it was 52 hours or so long, I sped it up to 3x. I then played the entire Bible— fast— as an Easter show.
The only way that could be better is if it was accompanied by drum and bass.

I think this actually crosses a line, that line being "when speakers literally start dying".
That distortion was actually in the track though, it's not likely to break your speakers. Unless you had them too loud to begin with.

Linkin Park may not be any good, but compared to some of the stuff here, it's nothing. The only reason people hate is because they actually became popular. If you didn't know who they were, you would find them spectacularly average and nowhere near skip worthy.

Let's save the skips for the speaker breaking songs and Faithfully. ;)

Yeah, I uploaded PritStik yesterday and that's definitely worse, but somehow it got rated 2.11111. I understand it has comic value, that's why I uploaded it, but the rating means nothing, so you can't base quality on just that.

With "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!" on the playlist it gave me a thought.

At some point we really need to queue up:

"Boom! Shake The Room" by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince
"Boom Boom" (I don't know any songs called this, but I found a couple in search)
"Boom Boom Boom" by The Outhere Brothers
"Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!" by Vengaboys

or some/all of the other "Boom" songs (just search to see how many there are)
