BBC iPlayer Traffic Doubled In Last 12 Months

The popularity of Auntie’s online broadcast service shows no signs of plateauing. January UK requests doubled from last year to 120.3 million (100.5 million if you ignore its Virgin Media (NSDQ: VMED) implementation)…

iPlayer’s come a long way since it was conceived as a download-only, Windows-only app – now just three percent of consumption is via download. And the recently-launched Wii app has been growing in popularity, taking share away from the web- and QuickTime-powered iPhone version.
