Orange announced the launch of the Orange Digital Media Index, a detailed report examining trends in Orange customers’ consumption of digital media. The Index looks at usage patterns across the full range of Orange’s entertainment and communications services, including home broadband, text and picture messaging, and mobile internet.
The first Digital Media Index reveals that mobile internet services are playing an increasingly important role in customers’ lives – mobile gaming, the Live World Cup Cricket channel and movie trailers for the year’s blockbusters have all proved extremely popular.
Key findings from the Digital Media Index include:
The “Atari generation” is the major force behind mobile gaming, with almost a quarter of a million mobile games downloaded each month
Live sporting events will play a key part in the success of mobile TV, with the Live Cricket World Cup taking the largest audience share for the quarter
Annual events such as the BAFTA’s and Oscar season lead to a huge upswing in movie clips access
Texting is more popular than ever with over 870 million messages sent in Q1 by Orange customers alone
