So again there have been changes in our top 100 specifically in the top 10 do you care? ------------- "The rock and roll business is pretty absurd, but the world of serious music is much worse." - Zappa |

No. I don't care at all.
I don't see much point in rating, but it's my own problem. For example, the man featuring on the signature of the poll starter doesn't figure in top 100; he's my favourite artist, but I feel comfortably without him in top 100 since I have my own opinion.
The top 100 (10, 50, 777 etc.) reflects the average of the other people opinions with which I have no problem at all.

| I think I do care but there is certainly a lot of political voting that invalidates it.Someone just gave SEBTP 2 stars.Probably a Pink Floyd fan??! |

I normally don't pay any attention to it unless it's brought up in one of the forums. Then I may check over for a peek.

It's all subjective - not to mention political - so I really don't care... though I really like all of the top ten, my order would be slightly different. It's quite fun watching for instance Yes - CttE plummet down the charts as some Genesis and Pink Floyd fans vote tactically - it's just like a progressive Pop Idol!  ------------- A dog is for lunch and not just for breakfast |

I think NOW many say they dont care, cause its the cool thing to say..."Naa...I dont read thouse things..." yeah right!I do care, and find it extremly bad that Close to the edge is no longer number 1 and the Dark side of the moon is that high ------------- "You want me to play what, Robert?"

Funny, I'm on the oposide opinion
 I don't realy care that much, but I'm happy that CTTE is not nr 1 and that the dark side is that high.
I use the list more as a guidline than the unquestianable truth, but it's always nice to see that your favorite albums are being apriciated.
Now, to get Foxtrot and Snow Goose higher.... -------------

| I don't really care. However, it would be fun if the admins messed with it a bit for April Fool's Day, so that some Genesis album of the '80s or something similairily loathed appeared as no. 1. |

 Snow Goose is such an amazing album, should be next to Thick as a Brick, IMHO.------------- "One likes to believe in the freedom of Music" - Neil Peart, The Spirit of Radio |

I'm happy everytime I notice that VdGG and Gentle Giant climbs, and Dream Theater/Riverside/Areon drops. So I guess I do care a bit. ------------- Over land and under ashes In the sunlight, see - it flashes Find a fly and eat his eye But don't believe in me Don't believe in me Don't believe in me |

I don't care about the ranking of the albums, but I like the fact that most albums present really deserve to be in it, so it's a good quick scan for what the good albums are.
of course the lesser known albums are not present, but that's the challenge, to find those gems and make them your discovery instead of just goinng with the popular choices. ------------- I'm always almost unlucky _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Id5ZcnjXSZaSMFMC Id5LM2q2jfqz3YxT |

I take a passing interest in the top 100, but on the hole I dont eally care as many of my top albums are nowhere near the top 10.

Agreed. I'm interested on the top 100 as a whole, because it gives a certain artist/album exposure, but I don't care that much about which album makes the top 10, or which position it gets. |

I personally don't care a bit about the top 100. I only know if I were to decide what the top 100 albums are, the list would be VERY different. but since the top 100 exist, I suggest an amendment: it is quite boring that the same artists appear in the top 100 again and again; nothing but fanboys (and perhaps girls) at work here voting the albums of their favorite artists up. so my suggestion is: allow only one album per artist to be in the top 100. then that list would at least make some sense, and the fanboys and -girls would be controlled a bit -------------  A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival.

I do not care at all. My own top ten or hundred are completely different from this list, and, moreover, it is changing constantly. As to top 100 as presented here, I believe that more than a half of the albums listed are not even essential. ------------- carefulwiththataxe |
