I read a Report (based on Nielsen//NetRatings) on the Streaming Media players earlier last month and it is very interesting after studied the results and looked at the blogs a little more. I do agree it needs to be clarify that if the numbers for iTunes and QuickTime are duplicates (same set of users). If not, the total should be combined. Also, I think there are certain number of Unix/Linux users will stay away from Real with more H.264 Opensource players available. WM will stay on top for a while (or, forever) since it comes with Windows Operating Systems. I would like to see more information on usage than installations ..
