> I'm a musician, and have dealt before with competing musicians downvoting me in hopes of driving my videos below theirs.

This implies there are more competing creators than total viewers.

Well there are also several individual niches where the competition can play out in very personal ways as well. I work within a specific sub genre of music, and more often than not that entire niche sometimes operates based on "small town" politics.

I still do it for the passion, not much profit has ever been there... har.

Sure friend, fair warning though, I'll probably delete this in a day or so to avoid an ID trail of people that might scan my posts later on... The Internet can be vengeful a times even if I am not so. :P
