YouTube Gains Video Share, Again
After a blockbuster December for Web video sites, U.S. surfers watched fewer videos online last month. Streams totaled 9.8 billion in January, down from 10.2 billion in December, according to comScore. This coincides with Nielsen data, which showed a similar drop-off from December to January.
Google (GOOG) gained 1.7 share points, moving up to 34.3% of all videos streamed on the Web in January from 32.6% in December.
Boilerplate disclaimer: These are one set of data from one source. For instance, comScore says News Corp.'s (NWS) Fox Interactive Media added significant market share, growing to 6% in January from 3.5% in December. Nielsen, meanwhile, showed a much gentler rise in FIM's traffic.
Update: A FIM spokesperson says the January gain is likely due to some fixes made in how comScore measures MySpace. As it stands, the gap between what Nielsen and comScore report for FIM for January video streams is 35%.
comScore: 584,132
Nielsen: 376,859
YouTube Robot allows you to search for videos using keywords or browse video by category, author, channel, language, tags, etc. When you find something noteworthy, you can preview the video right in YouTube Robot and then download it onto the hard disk drive. The speed, at which you will be downloading, is very high: up to 5 times faster than other software when you download a single file and up to 4 times faster when you download multiple files at a time.
Manual download is not the only option with YouTube Robot. You may as well schedule the download and conversion tasks to be executed automatically, even when you are not around. Downloading is followed by conversion to the format of your choice and uploading videos to a mobile device (if needed). For example, you can plug in iPod, select the video, go to bed, and when you wake up next morning, your iPod will be ready to play new YouTube videos.
