U2's Record-Breaking Concert Stream!

Filed under: Music Minute > Bono > YouTube

wenn2586756.jpg

U2's concert on Sunday may have been at the Rose Bowl in Southern California, but it was seen all over the world - on YouTube!

The live webcast was watched by nearly 10 million people, which was touted "a big win" for the company.

That would be an understatement, considering the 2 1/2 hour concert was YouTube's largest streaming event ever!!! And the rebroadcast has been watched by more than 1.1 million viewers!

So, maybe U2's overpriced set was worth it!

    Hang in there and don't give up on anything. You are going to pull yourself through and have everything you have ever wanted. I'm sure of that! Be strong and before you know it you'll be on that good seat again and will never look back! 46 bg hmaw

    would U2 fucking crawl under a rock already with there BORING SAVE THE PLANET BULLSHIT! They have been a YAWN band since the eighties.

    your momma would be pissing her 80's panties, um briefs, to live in the past
    if she was even online, you grannies
    and nine million of those viewers were in post communist block countries
    where u2 was banned in the actual 80's., so they are eventually catching up
    just like post ignorant michael jackson worshippers

    Re: so emo it hurts – What the fuck are you talking about? Your comment makes no sense at all. That's fucking hilarious.

    The thing no one will say is that Bono looks like a fat grandpa! U2 took more breaks up on stage! They are riding this thing out for the money $$$$$$ Cool idea though!
