U2\u2019s YouTube Concert Grabs 10 Million Live Streams<\/a><\/p>\n

Posted:<\/span> 29 Oct 2009 09:00 AM PDT<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"u2\"Did you tune into YouTube on Sunday to catch U2 performing live form the Rose Bowl<\/a>? If you did, you had some serious virtual company.<\/p>\n

The LA Times reports<\/a> that Sunday\u2019s show generated 10 million streams across 7 continents. The whole show was archived<\/a> on YouTube Monday and has been viewed more than 1 million times since then.
\n <\/span>
\nYouTube is calling the U2 concert the largest event in the company\u2019s history<\/a> and it very well could be a glimpse into what the Google-owned service plans in the future.
\nAfter all, it\u2019s hard to make money off of short-form content, but with live streams, YouTube could potentially capitalize and maybe even come up with a payment model (a la Pay-Per-View) for really big events.<\/p>\n

You can check out U2\u2019s concert here:
\nhttp:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=V4QLFVrZ-fw<\/a><\/p>\n

So did you tune in Sunday night? What do you think about YouTube moving into live events? Would you pay to watch a live concert on YouTube? Let us know!
\nMy answers would be: “Duh! Of course I did. I think it’s a wonderful thing. I would not pay more than 50 cents to watch a live concert on youtube, but I’m cheap. No.”<\/p>\n

And, if that wasn’t interesting enough for you, check this funny youtube vid out:

\nOh, what fun it must be sometimes to work at Tooth & Nail.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
