It’s official: YouTube is more popular than music ;)

Today our Facebook page hit an important milestone: over 10 million of you have clicked that “Like” button, making us more popular than Cristiano Ronaldo and -- whoa -- music?! Here’s a special message to anyone who’s ever clicked the thumb’s up button on our page:



Now, that’s pretty awesome, but honestly we won’t rest until we rock those vampires, sweep by the Prez and topple Lady Gaga. Help us get there by liking this page, writing on our Wall and sharing the videos and news we post daily. And, of course, a huge thanks to anyone and everyone who’s already said they "Like" us. It's most definitely mutual!

Mia Quagliarelly, Community Manager, recently posted “Jane Austen’s Fight Club” to Facebook.

YouTube is more popular than music? Cool, I guess. But isn't YouTube a place where you can share music. Therefor, YouTube is music, meaning that it is impossible for YouTube to be more popular than music.

Nah, YouTube is more popular than music.

MichiSalamea said...

it is more popular than music ^^

because because on youtube people post everything besides music.

therefor YouTube has both music and other shit. so the conclusion, youtube is more popular than music ^^

Zezima said...

No, I think you're right, YouTube can't be more popular than music, because they host it.

YouTube Needs a feedback feature.

I HATE the autoplay/ gray line at the bottom of the screen.
You must give us the right to turn it off completely!

We want to enjoy the videos.Not be annoyed to death.

So are you telling me that out of a planet with almost 7 billion people on it, with many (possibly 90% or more) who have been exposed to music, Youtube can claim they're more popular than music with a 10 million vote out of 500 million from a social netowrking site? Facebook is not a representation of the Human population, morons.
A more accurate statement would be, Youtube is more popular than music ON FACEBOOK, nowhere else. Most of the world doen't even have internet anyway, jerks. As human tradition thats lasted thousands of years, music will forever be more popular than some video viewing site. This narrow minded thinking from the youtube team annoys me.

What are you guys too afraid to say you're more popular than Jesus?

Music will outlast YouTube.

shakeelshiekh said...

Daniel said...

Great job, but how did someone measure music ?

Agnivesh Studio said...

I just want partnership in India otherwise FUCK the youtube!1

Lukas said...

you can't base popularity on Facebook likes...
im pretty sure there so many more ppl listening to music then there are ppl going on Youtube.

still, congratulations on getting more likes the music on Facebook.

Jay said...

No it's not! Youtube RUINED music by placing copyrights on everything so no one likes music as much, people don't like Youtube MORE though.

mkl said...

Michael Jackson has 17 million likes - Michael Jackson = music - oops!

waffle said...

Youtubers are musical whores.

Emucosmos said...

yeah yeah, that's really cool, but something's annoying me, and that thing is the gray bar, have you ever watched youtube in a netbook? I don't think so, and there's a LOT of people in the world that watches youtube in small sized screens, the gray bar is annoying, it always gets over the video, can you take things back to normal? or make a youtube for small screens? like youtube XL, only that it'll be youtube XS.

Seriously, it's extremely annoying

Terry said...

Thanks Great having a millions of fans! count me in too :)

Congratz YOUTUBE!

Facebook means nothing. That is all.

No, wait. Your new "Music" page is lacking a metal section that has real metal bands like Iron Maiden and Behemoth. And apparently someone thinks that Justin Bieber is "World Music".

bartleahdylan said...

Alex said...

Well if you like us back so much stop shoving crap down peoples throats, like your overbearing index, Can I please choose to see commended videos only? Not this crap like "Subscription favorites" and "Friends favorites" unless I wanna see them? and stop automatically going into a playlist mode, that is the most retarded crap ever, if I wanna see a playlist of recommended, I'll do that, give me a choice rather then lagging up the clients browser uselessly, and when I "x" a video from recommended, stop showing it too me again unless I reset my filters.

Jeseon said...

Neato. I must admit, this is quite interesting.. But it'd be nice if we could use music in our videos without getting it banned in some countries..

gordonfan500 said...

You guys are self-centered bastards.

You should help out your community instead of talking about your 10 million fans and being better than everyone else...which will NEVER happen.

David Cribbin said...

Youtube is not only more important then music, it's more important than air

Trickymaster said...

Now everyone can have his 15 minutes of fame. Just like Andy Warhol always proposed.

charlottelacar said...

It actually does post it. You just don't see it at first. Click on your channel, and go to the bottom of the page, you'll see the comments you made. I did the same thing.
