You need to do better than that. The DivX player and the non-pro version of the codec have no adware at all.
DivX vs. mpeg-1 are different solutions for different problems. I don't have handy the number of times the player has been downloaded, but we all know that number is ascertain exactly what that means.
What I can check is the number of individuals that have paid for DivX movies. Let's just say it is well over 7 digits. Also, people that try it, generally really like it. We see people renting 10 movies at a time. We also see return customers like crazy. I don't mean rebills. These are people coming back and making another purchase. In the last year we saw 100 people make more than 100 purchases. That is generally at a price point of $10- $15.
If you want to experiment with some traffic to DivX sites, you might want to talk to Top Bucks, Gamelink, DVD Empire, DVD Explorer, Hot Movies, I'm sure I am leaving a few out. Look for a few more affiliate models based around DivX content to roll out soon.
