Is that why my listening stats skyrocketed last week during about two days on Bandcamp?

Nope, I listen to it on Spotify. Is it possible that you add AKoO and Unfinished there please ?

-Tales of the Knight of the Moon: USD$14.95
-A Decade of Magic Hardcore: USD$224.96
-A Decade of Omni Dance: USD$36.27

Those are the sales and streaming revenues for the period ranging from June 2013 to May 2014 that I have gotten from each of my distributed albums on iTunes, Spotify, Pandora, Zune and over 20 other stores. It costs $34.95 per album per year to keep them online. Given that my first metal album can't even get close to cover those costs, I doubt I'll put a second metal album on Spotify/iTunes/etc, let alone a single.

That said, since the happy hardcore album offsets any loss I get from other albums and that I also get other money from the free Bandcamp service, I guess I might be fine, but that's still over 10% of my sales that would go away in covering AKoO's distributing costs. Here are my June 2013-May 2014 sales on Bandcamp btw in Canadian dollars:

-TotKotM: CAD$9.90
-AKoO: CAD$55.44
-Unfinished: CAD$5.00
-A Decade of Magic Hardcore: CAD$15.92
-A Decade of Omni Dance: CAD$16.02

Basically, even with Bandcamp included, TotKotM isn't even making the cut. AKoO only sold so much because it just came out last Winter. Now it isn't selling so much anymore (the last Bandcamp copy sold was in March), but it has the highest listen rate overall.

All profits used to go to Omnimaga contest/hosting donations until about a year ago back when Omni hosting costed $85 per month, but nowadays it mainly covers a few metal concert ticket and video game purchases.
If AKoO ever makes it to iTunes, it will be combined with Unfinished and another single.
