Over 17 million programmes have been streamed or downloaded on demand on 成人论坛 iPlayer in the first seven weeks since its marketing launch, according to the latest figures from the 成人论坛.
听
Daily volumes have been increasing strongly during January and February and last week the total number of streams and downloads in a single day broke through the half a million barrier. 听
During January, more than 2.2 million people watched a programme on 成人论坛 iPlayer, with approximately 11 million TV programmes streamed or downloaded on demand.
听
This complements the 15.9 million radio downloads during January (rising from 13.4 million in December) and totalling 27 million requests for TV and radio programmes.
听
The research reveals that the number of visitors to the whole of bbc.co.uk has increased by over a quarter in the past year.
听
There was an average of 20 million UK visitors weekly to bbc.co.uk across January, marking an increase of 29% on the corresponding period in 2007, driven chiefly by 成人论坛 iPlayer (accounting for up to 1.3 million unique visitors weekly), news, sport and weather.
听
Programmes which performed particularly well on 成人论坛 iPlayer include Ashes To Ashes, coverage of the Six Nations clash between England and Wales and Life In Cold Blood.
听
Ashley Highfield, Director of 成人论坛 Future Media and Technology, says: "While it's still early days, early indications are that 成人论坛 iPlayer is having a significant effect in attracting new users to bbc.co.uk.
听
"To build on this initial success, we continue to reach out to audiences wherever they are, and we now have 成人论坛-branded 'channels' on Yahoo! and partnerships with MSN and Blinkx going live soon.
听
"These enable you to watch highlights and excerpts of 成人论坛 programmes, as well as clicking on a link to watch the full programme on 成人论坛 iPlayer.
听
"In addition, we are introducing new features on the 成人论坛 iPlayer homepage, including improved navigation options and programme recommendations."
