4724 bands in total;
1585 (34%) require samples;
803 (17%) require VR proof;
2334 (49%) require both
1082 (28% of) sample-less bands have a release on Discogs (990), musik-sammler.de (24) or both (68), potentially for sale
1624 (34%) bands have a search alert set up on Soulseek; 49 have a request thread on HMR (that's 1 in 96; at least 251 might benefit from creating one and a further 626 still need to be looked up)
1409 (30%) bands still need to be looked up on Discogs (652), musik-sammler.de (1024) and/or Soulseek (258)
Since June 17 2023, we have been able to remove 8169 entries from this list (an average of 10 per day; at this rate it would take 472 days to clear the current list)
89% of band entries are older than 1 year, 63% are older than 2, 3.4% are older than 5
Out of those older than 8 years, 33 bands are still lacking VR proof, so maybe time to lay them to rest
