iTunes continues to draw traffic, the report said: "In all, 5.4 million people visited iTunes in July, up 13 per cent from June 2005. The growth of iTunes also helped push the Retail - Music category up 7 per cent to 30.1 million visitors".
In July, consumers were drawn to the Web by historic events such as the Discovery Space Shuttle launch and Lance Armstrong's record-setting ride to a seventh Tour de France victory.
NASA traffic gains
NASA.GOV shared the title as the Internet's highest-gaining property in July 2005 as traffic increased 60 per cent. Over four million people visited NASA.GOV in July.
"Through the integration of video and other rich media into Web content, audiences can increasingly interact with world events, rather than just sitting back and watching," said Peter Daboll, president and CEO of comScore Media Metrix.
