Here are the numbers: “P2P traffic uses a share of 30% (daytime) and 70% (nighttime) of the overall Internet traffic in Germany. The absolute data volume has risen by 10% between June and October 2006. BitTorrent has surpassed eDonkey as the most popular file sharing network and causes more than half of all P2P traffic in Germany. Both networks generate over 95% of the P2P traffic and have nearly displaced previously popular networks such as Kazaa\'s FastTrack.” (from a survey by Ipoque). As to what is shared, for example, for BitTorrent the figures are: Music 22%, Video (movies) 21%, Video (porn) 15%. |
