Yeah, the numbers don't make sense.

No way only 11% of Xbox 360 owners bought something digital over the past year.

First off, it says that "a further .5 million have paid for DLC", which means that 1.5 million people have paid for DLC.

Secondly, I don't see why it is so hard to believe that only 1 million people in the UK have bought a digital game.  It's not like the UK is that huge a market.

ps3 is hardcore.

Are they not including MW3 packs?

You are saying that to the wrong person pal. You're in big trouble.

seems legit to me. People are overrating digital distribution for consoles anyway. I don´t think so many people are willed to download a 30GB game, if they have a 60 or 120GB HDD. And DLC seems a much bigger deal in USA then in Europe. Only one person I know has payed for DLC except of myself of course.

Ah Pezzie, and here I thought you meant worldwide, and people complaing about my Kaz title... :P

Out of hundred of games available, at most five games are more than 20GB. Probably more than ninety percent of games are less than 2GB. 

i don't get that, if i look in my friends lists, i'm pretty sure almost everyone downloads more than one "article" per year.  and i don't count themes or avatar cloting or so... i'm not even sure if i know someone who didn't buy and download anything of all the shit you can get the last year.  and the 1 million game + 500k dlc downloaders is the overall market? 

i thought both console will be at over 50% lol (if they really count every downloadable content you can buy for these consoles)

are they including free games from PSN+ I wonder.
also it makes sense that people would buy more on PS3 online because of the cheaper HDDs.
