Overall, 27% of online video consumers say they watch or download video from
YouTube, and of those who watch or download videos from more than one location,
29% say YouTube is the place where they view online video most often. Young adults
are almost twice as likely to point to YouTube as a source for online video; 49% of video
viewers ages 18-29 say they watch YouTube videos. MySpace garners a much smaller
slice of the young adult audience (15% of viewers), but one that is still considerably
larger than the segment who use cable and network TV sites (7%) or news websites (6%)
as sources for video.
Male viewers are more likely than female viewers to use YouTube (31% vs. 22%), but
otherwise, men and women generally report the same levels of usage across every source
they were asked about. Frequent viewers of online video also have a greater tendency to
use YouTube; 39% of video viewers who say they watched an online video “yesterday”
are users of YouTube compared with just 21% of viewers who did not watch
“yesterday.”
