One of the most downloaded videos we have in our iTunes U site is Ellen Lupton's September 2006 D.Y.I. Design It Yourself [iTunes link] in Art & Identity: The Artists Lecture Series [iTunes link]. Opening the public site spreadsheet this morning, I saw that it was downloaded 341 times over the past week. So I thought, let's look on Apple's iTunes U to see if it is one of the featured videos this week. And, sure enough, it is. If you look at the bottom of the home page, (before Apple replaces this feature) you'll see
In addition, there were 3,191 previews. Apple tracks previews as "user double-clicks a track in a Course page to preview a file instead of downloading it." Being feature on Apple's main iTunes U page draws enormous attention to one of our videos. Finally, there were over 1,000 browses. I created a page to feature this video (I've done this for many others to feature them on our UA main page). When someone clicks the link on Apple's main page to Ellen Lupton's thumbnail, it goes to this page [iTunes link]. And we see from the spreadsheet that there were 1,015 times visitors went to this page. On this page, the visitors might then have previewed or downloaded the video.
At the end of last week, I uploaded the last video in Art & Identity, Tam van Tran: Lecture with the Artist [iTunes link]. This video was downloaded 205 times, which tells me that there are probably that many subscribers to the podcast series.
