The Google Adsense advertising network, which VGMusic uses across its pages, has introduced a new feature called interest-based advertising, which uses a cookie to identify the kind of websites you visit. Although Google claims there is "no personal information", it sounds too creepy, so we have opted to turn that kind of advertising off. This is also documented in the updated Cookies portion of our Privacy Policy. Please don't DoubleClick the links.

Time to be serious for another 364 days. The Ranked Listings were generated by putting fake songs from our nusic directory at the top, followed by a random listing of real songs after that, with fake hit statistics. Originally, we were pondering just showing a single listing of the most popular songs, such as this real listing (which represents hits for roughly the first 20 days of March) with the fake songs inserted in, but I thought it would be better to offer the new ranked listing "feature" instead. It was a fun programming task, until I deleted the python script just a few hours before it was going to be used. Sigh... I reprogrammed it in 1 hour fortunately, with multiple backups along the way.

Please check out the new "Ranked Listing" option in each music section. For example: the SNES Ranked Listing. Each listing is sorted by the number of hits each file has received for the past 30 days. With a little more work, we hope to get the hit stats to update daily.

Just wanted to remind everyone of the VGMusic.com Facebook Group. Its a good place to find out the status of the website if we ever have downtime (otherwise check out our status page). Also check to see who else is a fan of the site. Currently we have 76 members.
