Would it be possible to add download counters for the sample packs?
I'm just curious about how many people are picking up the sample packs.
I guess that would mean adding an extra page or?

its just a simple php script:

make a link to the script which logs the click, then links to the download.

/e: in stead of directly linking to the download

But most people use "save target as..." so the link doesn't get "used" in a way that it gets clicked.

from the moment the link is called (save target as... or click Download!) , it adds +1 to the counter in the script.

youu should place a link to the script , not the file itself

only admins can do this (or should be the only ones possible to do it)

Here's the current top 30:
10674 Padz
10342 Cyberworm dnb synths
10244 JX-305 Drums
10174 Hard Kicks
10143 Korg Triton LE

8219 die bassdrums ruven
7706 Seven Gun Bass Pack
7244 Choirs & Vocals

Yeah it's something like that. There is a script that checks the user credentials, updates the database and then pipes the data stream to the browser. It also does some basic checks before initiating the data stream to avoid the site slowing down by people using malicious tools such as download managers.
