The Wall Street Journal reports that as well as being heavy internet users in general, iPhone owners are also by far the largest consumers of mobile television and video.

According to an M:Metrics survey, 30.9% of iPhone users have watched mobile television on the device, compared to 4.6%, on average, for other mobile phone users.

That iPhone users are more video hungry than other mobile phone users is no real surprise given that there’s a YouTube application right on the home screen, but the extent of the difference is remarkable.

In related news, this post from Ian noted that iPhone users were responsible for a 3% increase in iPlayer usage following the release of iPlayer for iPhone. Another impressive statistic.
