The equivalent of stream starts would be our metric 'Playcount'.
We have two metrics to report on the number of plays:
- Plays: number of clicks on the play button (if a user clicks Play > Pause > Play, this metric will report 2 plays).
- Playcount: number of times a stream has started (if a user clicks Play > Pause > Play, this metric will report 1 playcount and 2 plays).
