graphChristmas this year, brought Zunes to tons of hands and those hands went hitting the internet!  Hitwise has announced that zune.net was visited a whopping 299% more than the previous year's Christmas, and hits jumped 392% from the previous day!  More after the bump....


"mp3 players were...very popular as Christmas gifts," said Heather Dougherty, Director of Research at Hitwise. "This year the Zune has captured interest from music listeners with a new line of redesigned players and discounted older models..." 

The announcement also reveales that internet traffiic is up 16% from last year.  

While the numbers are definitely in the right direction (going WAY up!) Apple and it's iTunes had more traffic which comes as no surprise as it still leads in the PDMP market.

 "iTunes remained the predominant download site with a market share over 6 times larger than Zune.net," Hitwise said in its statement. "The total market share of visits for Zune.net reached 0.09 percent on Christmas Day, as opposed to the market share of visits to iTunes which reached 0.68 percent."

You know even with the relative sucess of the Zune this year the media still cant stop interjecting their Ipod dominance allover every article. Man 299 % increase over the previous month last year is incredible. Call it for what it is, not what Ipod all ready has.

cheapwow goldlol, It's really not that cluttered. My 8 year old son could understand it. There's navigations on the top, some buttons on the right nav, some polls, and some ads on the far right.

Whats so cluttered about it?
