So maybe I do memes once in awhile
Find the number of listeners for each of your top 10 artists* and add them up and divide by 10 to get the average.

I'm 0.027% mainstream.
Stolen from Pata who I am obviously way more esoteric than. Also more people love castrati boy than Daita.
A few observations:
DragonForce is the most mainstream band there. That's hilarious.
Daita only has 164 listeners there?!
I didn't expect Yasunori Mitsuda to have less listeners than Yuki Kajiura o_o.
My top ten is awesome.
My top ten has Nobuo Uematsu on it instead of Aki Kuroda, but the only songs it's counting are from the FFX piano arrange CD that he had nothing to do with. I changed the files in my iTunes to artist - Aki Kuroda as soon as I discovered this was going on.
My top ten has OCReMix on it instead of Chrono Symphonic, but the only songs it's counting are from the Chrono Symphonic discs, so I simply searched the album. (OCReMix only had a few hundred hits itself, ftr.)
164 people on last.fm actually listen to Daita o_O
* = I threw out me, because I listen to my stuff to check quality and to solo over XD
It's 8:30 am and I am officially lurking the internet and leaving stupid, asinine comments and messages everywhere until I can sleep.
I apologize in advance for said shenanigans.
