Do this stats look ok?
I find it a bit hard to believe there are 18k views and only 34 downloads. I would believe there were 1k views, maybe 1.5k. But this stats look like it is a bug in search engine.

No, but by posting as you did and inviting comments, you clearly invited opinions on related issues.

Get off your high horse.

those numbers are meaningless w/o more context -- how many clips do you have? how many of those were dl'd? how many were dl'd multiple times? what's the distribution of views across clips? etc, etc

conclusion:don't worry about views - concentrate on the things you CAN control (quality, metadata)

Yes you did ask, because prices like those are lowballing entire industry. Especially if the content is good or great. If you are happy with 10$ of your share, i am not

You've got that right mate. People shouldn't even be allowed to price their work that low at P5.
Besides trying to better the competition they are also eliminating themselves but don't realize it just yet.
Thankfully there are still buyers out there more then willing to spend industry standard or premium prices and even prefer it over the cheap stuff.
