Top 20 music sites – March 2008
14May08
Compete.com launched its own ranking of top music sites, probably saving me a lot of work going forward. Helpfully, the new rankings also include the music subdomains on Yahoo, AOL, MySpace, and MSN.

Upshot is that imeem now tops Yahoo, and Eliot Van Buskirk has a nice rundown on some of the reasons for the shift away from Yahoo. Here’s the ranking:

Note that after fixing the data imeem is 11th in uniques, aol is 1st and y! is 2nd. This is a huge difference, though the correction has been much less newsworthy than the initial incorrect story.
Lucas – interesting, I hadn’t seen that. I went back to the original URL but didn’t see this. Can you send URL?
Btw, I enjoyed your post on SAI and I of course recall you from Webjay. We must meet sometime!
See 5/19 update on http://blog.wired.com/music/2008/05/imeem-unseats-y.html : “ComScore’s numbers contradict Compete’s, showing that AOL Music in the top slot with 21.9 million visitors, Yahoo Music in second with nearly 20.8 million visitors and imeem in 11th.”
It’s a small world for internet music people, looking forward to running into you..
Ah got it – thx! Look fwd to meeting you soon.
