Well, so basically it is understood that at least one third of the Internet data is made up of several varieties of porn (images, videos...). From the news article:
Xvideos, the largest porn site on the web with 4.4 billion page views per month, is three times the size of CNN or ESPN, and twice the size of Reddit. LiveJasmin isn’t much smaller. YouPorn, Tube8, and Pornhub — they’re all vast, vast sites that dwarf almost everything except the Googles and Facebooks of the internet.
(...)
YouPorn hosts “over 100TB of porn”, and serves “over 100 million” page views per day. All told, this equates to an average of 950 terabytes of data transfer per day, almost all of which is streaming video. This is around 28 petabytes per month, which means our 29PB estimate for Xvideos is on the low side; it probably serves 35 to 40PB per month.
It gets better! At peak time, YouPorn serves 4000 pages per second, equating to burst traffic in the region of 100 gigabytes per second, or 800Gbps. This is equivalent to transferring more than 10 dual-layer DVDs every second.
So, as a sociological inquiry... do you guys and gals enjoy watching porn? How many times a day? If so, which genre of porn is your particular favorite? I must admit I'm a fan or orgies and groupsex or gangbangs, it sometimes looks like a wonderful and pleasant coreography to me. Some people would say that Porn is the new religion of the majority, since it seems that lot of individuals watch it on a daily basis.
