It's very unusual on a pc for any user to not have multiple players installed.
I guess therefore you could be looking for information about 'what content is provided in what format' since that would give an indication of user consumption by 'format'.
Just remember that ONE provider could host ONE file, but if that file is THE piece of information that EVERYONE wants to see that day and its ONLY available in one Video-Format then everyone who that provider services will see it in that Video-Format. So perspective is everything.
I think that raises two issues:
1) On this we are all very biased to
our favoured technology (wait to read my ranting further down...!)
2) It doesn't matter to the end users any more WHAT the format is - they will get / have the technology if the CONTENT is what they want to see.

I wanted to send out a general question to all webcasters asking about venue's which only supply ISDN as their means of connecting to the internet (for webcasting). Are they finding that this is a good way to do it or would they prefer another route?
BT and Thus have both told us they are changing their ISDN service.
ADSL take up is now 67% in the UK (i believe) and so most people have downstream bandwidths well in excess of what is economic on dial-up or point to point ISDN and so is it time that venues invest in Leased lines to provide the bandwidth we need or wait until ISDN really is a legacy technology?
It's a pressing issue for me.
