"all devices should reach 56 million unique users"

And they also said that the units would have a low price. The Oculus was target to be sold at around US $300. The preorders are now at $599... 200%  !!!

Her in México, if I want a DK2, I need to pay around US $1,500 !!!!

So... I'll need to wait till they lower the price and the initial "BUM!" fades.

Another pointless video by The Know.  (Particularly the title).  Yes, the speculated # of VR sales in the coming years seemed pretty silly, but it's too damned early for this video.  Disappointed that they even made it, but that's the world...
