Mashable is reporting today that visitors to Netflix’s site have jumped 46 percent year-over-year for the month of June.
The growth is thanks to the increasing popularity of the Watch Instantly streaming service, and Netflix’s decision to add their native service to set-top boxes, Blu-ray players and HDTVs.
Citigroup analyst Mark Mahaney adds that Netflix’s explosive growth is the “fastest year-to-year growth [he] has seen in over five years.”
For the entire second quarter, Netflix’s web traffic was up 34 percent year-over-year. In the first quarter, YoY growth was 19 percent.
Netflix has added 1.7 million subscribers in the Q1, ending with 14 million customers.

If Bank of America is to be believed, then the upcoming 3G Apple iPhone will hit retailers by June and that up to 11 million iPhones will be produced by the Q3 2008.
The new report, from Bank of America analyst Scott Craig, has not been confirmed by Apple or AT&T. “Our latest Channel checks point to a significant production build of a 3G iPhone beginning in the month of June after an initial small build in May,” he said.
Craig estimates that 3 million 3G iPhones will be produced by June and then 8 million more in the Q3. Craig previously estimated that there would only be 8 million units produced for the whole year.
Recently other analysts reported that Apple had ordered 10 million 3G iPhones from manufacturers so Craig’s estimates don’t seem to far out of reach.
