I know what they say about statistics. There are only 3 types of lies. Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics. But I went through my download stats and found some pretty distinct trends. I posted this on my website but throught maybe the devs would be interested in some raw demographics.
Since April 21 2009
Raw Download Stats Last 51 days
OS X 1927 Times or 37.79 Times Per Day
Linux 629 Times or 12.34 Times Per Day
Win32 1995 Times or 39.12 Time Per Day
XBOX 3329 Times or 65.27 Times Per Day
Total Downloads 7880
Total Downloads 154.51 times per day
On raw data it apears that OS X, Linux and Win32 are downloaded FAR few times and they are, but
one must take into account that all 3 are available many other places.
OS X and Win32 are popular downloads on at least a half a dozen other sites and Win32 has a few great autoupdater scripts out there.
Linux people tend to compile their own therefore do not need to download a prebuild package.
XBOX isn't really available anywhere except T3CH and She only updates like once every other week or so.
Makes it kind of hard to get a true demographics breakdown, but the raw numbers are interesting anyway in that
they seem to be the direct opposite of the efforts being bestowed on XBMC, Where Linux gets the most work done to it
and XBOX the least.
Just thought it was interesting.
