Just five months after announcing a milestone of 1 billion (1,000,000,000) torrents served, Mininova is now boasting that it has served 2 billion torrents to its users. The amount of total torrent downloads roughly doubles every half year. TV Shows were the most popular torrents, accounting for 40.11% of all downloads.
Music dragged along behind, accounting for 21.21% of all downloads. Next, as you would guess, Movies accounted for 17.89% of the torrents downloaded. Games and Software were next with shares of 6.59% and 5.61%, respectively. The rest were as follows: Anime 3.61%, Books 3.04%, Other 1.42% and Pictures 0.53%.
"Of course this is not the end, if the growth keeps continuing we might be able to reach the 4 billion mark by the end of this year! Watch out, Apple iTunes," the blog post reads.
