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."
Oh wait, they're talking about the legal services.
Also of note, 80% of users are male What about the 20% left, does it include dolphin and whales ?
They almost just had a new customer, until i saw this at the top of my screen.
"Sorry, but in order to enjoy the Movielink service you must use Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher, which supports certain technologies we utilize for downloading movies. Click here to get the latest version of Internet Explorer.
We do not anticipate supporting Mozilla or Netscape in the near future."
Oddly enough, I dont anticipate them getting any of my money in the near future.
Wow, with movie greats like "Zontar Thing From Venus" and "Matango Fungus of Terror" I just don't see why MovieFlix isn't #1.
Also of note, 80% of users are male and the top films purchased are sci-fi and fantasy.
Anybody else supprised that pr0n aint toppin the list?
I want to rent games online. I also want to rent movies online. Until a service exists wherein I can do both these things with the same subscription, nobody gets my business.
You go girl.
Also of note, 80% of users are male
The other 20% signed up using their mother's credit card...
