1.5 million people buying digital stuff on consoles (PS3 & 360) in the whole UK is a joke with a userbase of 13 million.

CoD mappacks alone in the UK probably exceeded this number.

CoD Black Ops DLC generated 250 million USD alone and that game sold 14% of its worldwide sales in UK.

So that would mean 35 million USD spent in the UK, which would mean 2.3 million downloads, $15 each.

I know, not the most reliable data (currency etc) but it still proves my point that their data is even worse. Add Battlefield 3, Uncharted, Gears of War etc etc and you get the idea that 500k is not realistic at all.

Me, my brother, some of his friends, 2 of my housemates all own Black ops (yes we are sheep) but not one of us bought the rip off DLC or map packs.

These figures are probably right because it's based on people not individual sales/downloads. I only download free demos and free DLC, I never pay for any DLC. Last game I bought was Wipeout HD when that first came out and it's expansion when that came out, that was over 2 years ago.

So ...

 

anecdotal evidence > Logic.

Cool story bro!
