Downloads ? Some notes on the download figures Audio and video downloads tracked since April 2006. Image views tracked since October 2005. Estimates preceding individual file statistics, based on total download figures (video 29519, audio 19683) adding up to 49202 files, counted against the current average download size, suggest a total of 7.5 GB video and 1 GB audio downloaded, a total of 8.5 GB of downloads prior to April 2006. Download size is shown with the assumption that all downloads complete – which is not a fact. FTP downloads, which our system does not track, compensate abundantly for this, as large files are commonly downloaded over FTP.	375237 (45.26 TB)	127815 (32.67 TB)	247422 (12.59 TB)	1257606 views
