iTunes More Popular than P2P
Pfffft, is what I say to that title. Throughout the entire p2p/legal download war we have seen analysts on both sides come up with certain numbers to benefit their agenda. So who can you believe and is there any truth to the madness?
NPD's Music Watch Digital service has came out with a survey that announces that iTunes is larger than p2p networks. However, after closer inspection you see the actual networks they are comparing them to. iTunes is supposedly is just as popular as Limewire, but beats out iMesh and Kazaa.
These figures don't surprise me too much, but how can you compare all p2p traffic? It's easy to see how many users are on Kazaa or Limewire simultanteously, but torrent traffic is much harder to track. In addition, hasn't bittorrent taken over most popular downloading networks falling just short of eDonkey and the like?
It'll be interesting to see how the major production companies twist these figures to fit their agenda and make p2p out to be the bad guy...once again.
I just got my 2000t and all of my songs are skipping in iTunes, and I cant figure out why. If someone could help me out and tell me how to fix this I would really appreciate it because its driving me crazy. Thanks for the replys.
