In March of 2005, Slyck compiled our collected data. Starting with January of 2003, the respective statistics for eDonkey2000, DirectConnect, FastTrack, Gnutella and Overnet were averaged per month. Unfortunately there is no accurate way to gauge BitTorrent’s population (other than bandwidth consumption), therefore it is excluded. We then released our "Stats Expanded" section, which graphically depicted the growth or decline of these five networks.Read the full report at Slyck
