MovieLink 2004's Top Film Download Service, So Far

An anonymous reader writes "The NPD Group has released some research on the fledgling pay digital movie download services. Numbers for the first half of this year show MovieLink as number one with a third of total users followed by MovieFlix with 13% of the market. It's a very small market though, with purchases equalling only 0.3% of the total movie market (and nowhere near the numbers of those trading on the free P2P services). Also of note, 80% of users are male and the top films purchased are sci-fi and fantasy."

    You're just upset because you've never actually seen one of these "females" in the wild.

    "It is also apparently not catering to Linux or MacOS users, which is a shame, because I'd be willing to pay what they seem to be charging, at least on occasion."

    It's times like this I'm glad I chose an OS that does everything I want to instead of choosing it because I hate mean old corporations.
