You're slightly incorrect, I assume you're pulling this figure from Macwold back at the beginning of the year. The 47% (I think that was the number) was for Mp3 players in JAPAN, not the US.

It would be more informative to know what the iPod's position is in sales of 'high-end' MP3 players ( hard disk >5G)
