And a search just a minute ago shows these numbers:
Google for "djvu" -- ~1,640,000 hits
Google for "pdf" -- ~435,000,000 hits

<sarcasm>
Gee, it's popularity just grew by over half a million hits in less
than one day and pdf dropped over 5 million.  Just as valid
non-anecdotal evidence it's popularity is taking off and pdf is
plummetting in popularity.

What is the magical number djvu must surpass not to be obscure anyway?
That wasn't listed in the definition for the word.
