YouTube Live Debut Draws 700k Audience at Peak
by John Jorgensen on November 24, 2008

- YouTube’s first live event, a concert/award show featuring artists like Katy Perry and Akon, drew 700,000 viewers at its peak according to Mogulus‘ interpretation of data from Akamai.
- Compared to TV, the numbers suck. Crappy shows get 3 million+ viewers. Still, not terrible for YouTube’s first attempt at bringing live video to a mass audience on the web.
- The problem is, will advertisers care? YouTube’s audience demographic is all over the place.
- Did anyone out there watch this thing?
