Driven by the popularity of high-quality QuickTime® content on popular web sites, one million copies of Apple's QuickTime 5 are being downloaded every three days. The rate of QuickTime 5 downloads has steadily increased since its launch in April, putting QuickTime 5 on track to exceed 100 million downloads in its first year of distribution.
"More than 300,000 people download QuickTime 5 to their Macs and PCs every day," said Philip Schiller, Apple's vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. "The incredible quality of QuickTime content delivered by popular movie trailers such as Star Wars Episode II and Lord of the Rings, and nonstop news coverage from top organizations like CNN and NPR are driving this record setting download rate."
