Comparing torrent downloads in different regions

By using the rightmost selector on the “Add Overlay” toolbar, you can view the number of BitTorrent downloads that your artist has received in different countries, as determined by the IP address location of the downloaders.

Click the selector to open the drop-down menu, and choose a country. The list is ranked with the highest number of downloads at the top, so you can quickly find the areas with the greatest activity.

When you have selected a country, click the “Add overlay” button to view the downloads numbers for that region:

As always, you can view downloads from multiple countries by adding multiple overlays. The selectors for artist, metric, release and country are independent, so you you view any combination of metrics on the same graph:

You can use these metrics in conjuncture with our torrent map (on the next page) to receive a detailed overview of the file-sharing behaviour of your artist’s fanbase.
