Ars Technica are implying it was quite a source of bandwidth usage within companies. I'm curious, are any interesting charts on an ISP side?
<nitpick> As a matter of techincal accuracy, The Ars Technica article reports that monitored corporate networks had more traffic to/from megaupload.com than to/from several other 'cyberlocker' operations, inncluding ones that were more focused on the 'corporate' market. 'quite a source of bandwidth usage' is a bit of an overstatement, as the traffic to/from Megaupload was somewhat over 20 terabyes, out of a total of 10,900+ terabytes of monitored traffic. Or about 0.189% of corporate usage on the monitored networks. </nitpick>
