Search on July 4, 2008 does not show that comscore has released thier figures yet. The only numbers that are out are the french numbers which are not what we were using. Since I put in the results tab that the comscore report wouldn't be out till around the 10th then I think we should honor the comscore results.

OK I'm starting to think that comscore isn't going to release this information this month. Lots of releases this month from them but all have to do with May 2008 or European markets.
