122years of game play when spread across 75million devices is a very small amount. It's less than 1minute of streaming per device. (11million minutes less).

Still tho I think it has already surpassed the number of users that IOS has. Really great managing to roll out that amount of data so fast, I mean 75mx20gb download=1.39Exabytes of Data, or 1,39million Terabytes. Stunning amount of information.

Microsoft Dominates Desktop OS Market Share. 90.8% of desktop computers in June 2015 were running Windows operating systems, according to estimates. LOL, Apple.
