The impact of the web on the music industry has been devastating. The encoding of the MP3 format and the rise of the P2P networks have remodeled an entire economic sector.

The portability of the MP3 players and the worldwide success of the iPod, together with the introduction of the music store in iTunes, have allowed Apple the conquest of an entire economic galaxy. The new rules of the legal market have been dictated by combining technology and usability.

The Web 2.0 has not only turned into dinosaurs the strongholds of the music industry, but has also made available unimaginable resources for emerging artists. That’ s a very democratic revolution.

We are hunted analyzes the data of this new galaxy, drawing the ranking of the 99 most popular songs in the social media music. Information is gathered troughout Last.fm, Myspace, Twitter, torrent sites, and music blogs. For each artist, all sorts of information can be found, with links, statistics, comments and more.

If you want to know what people are listening on the internet, this is the place to go. Even the old traditional rankings now, have no more sense. The revolution continues.
