World first web linked DVD-ROM has tens of thousands discovering home

Tuesday, 7 August 20073 min read

In the week following its launch through The Sunday Telegraph, the PleaseTakeMeTo.com web-linked travel DVD-ROM was viewed by over 20,000 unique users, with organisers saying it was an overwhelming success with many newsagents around New South Wales selling out of newspapers and DVD-ROMs.

Statistics show new user numbers continue to grow at the rate of several hundred per day.

Week one statistics have been exceptional: –

** Over 20,000 unique users viewed the DVD-ROM while they were online

** 10,000 users used the disk more than once

** The average time spent viewing is just over 20 minutes, adding up to over 10,000 viewing hours in week one alone

** Most visited regions – Sydney and surrounds.

Disk use can only be measured while a user is on line, so the actual number of users is likely to be far higher.

Users can view full screen video instantly from the DVD-ROM but all information on the product is updated automatically whenever a user is on line, so it’s always up to date.

Copies can be ordered through the PleaseTakeMeTo.com website.
