Clint Modien wrote: I'm totally confused now. Isn't the only thing requiring a player upgrade to 9.0 flex 2? Without auto-update turned on what is causing such a blazing fast adoption rate? I think it's the content. While YouTube requires Adobe Flash Player 8 or better, anyone still upgrading from v7 or previous will now get the current version, Flash Player 9. Rephrased, a site doesn't *have* to specify FP9... anytime that they specify a minimum version greater than what someone has installed, then (as of the end of June) they'll be getting FP9. MySpace going to SWF9 did increase adoption rates, but even if they have 90 million regular visitors, that's still only about three weeks' worth of normal Flash Player distribution... from what I'm told, we've been seeing five to six million successful installations per day anyway. MySpace *did* have an effect in bunching upgrade requests together, but the total Flash Player 9 audience is already far larger than the MySpace audience. There's a virtuous circle going on with Flash work now... the application developers benefit from the video sites, from the advertisers, from the newspaper infographics, from the personality sites.

RE: [flexcoders] Stats on flash player 9 penetration.
Some very popular sites require Player 9 because it was the earliest release with some security fixes. Those fixes are in older versions that will be coming out soon (or may have already come out). As in, there will be newer versions of Player 8 and Player 7 with those fixes I think.

RE: [flexcoders] Stats on flash player 9 penetration.
Hi, Two more data points: a) One from JD: http://weblogs.macromedia.com/jd/archives/2006/10/apple_updates_f.cfm Not everyone cares about the Mac, but for those who do, it is nice to know that Apple is pushing FP9 out to all their customers b) I can't give the name, but I was speaking with one of the largest manufacturers in North America recently. They are doing a lot of internal applications with Flex 2 and decided to push out Flash Player 9 to all 100,000+ desktop machines in their company worldwide. This is great news for Flash Player 9 in its first 90 days on the market. It is just one data point, but this is the earliest I have ever seen that behaviour. -David From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Clint ModienSent: Sunday, October 01, 2006 3:06 PMTo: flexcoders@yahoogroups.comSubject: Re: [flexcoders] Stats on flash player 9 penetration.

Clint Modien wrote: 50% in 3 months are you kidding? That's insane. I'm glad you share my sense of insanity ;-) But these early projections seem plausible... Flash Player 8 reached 85% consumer viewability in nine months of distribution, and the daily installation rates for FP9 are just as high. High-profile sites moved to FP8 pretty quickly, mostly for the new video codec, and now all those upgrade prompts have been pushing people to the current Player. The application designers are getting a boost from the video houses here. jd -- John Dowdell . Adobe Developer Support .
