Reminder: iTunes Rating Changes
« on: Apr 25, 2009, 12:19:38 PM »
I guess this is more of a suggestions for fellow listeners than for the SGU Crew. I just wanted to remind everyone that the iTunes store has recently changed their rating system. You can now rate a podcast without having to write a review. I'm not sure how this affects the ranking, in fact it may have no effect whatsoever, but it's worth doing just in case it's been built into the ranking system somehow.

So, everyone log in to iTunes and be sure to rate the SGU 5 stars! It takes literally a second of your time to do.

That is all. :)

Done.
Common guys, they only have 109 ratings! How many listeners are there?
There are over 5000 members on this forum alone.  ???

Hey Filip, where are you located? iTunes shows a lot more ratings here (993), but it's regionalized so that ratings and stats are different for different countries.

I am in Canada.
That makes sense, but this still seams a tad low.

Hmm....surprising. I would think that Canada would have a similar listenership to the US.
