Felix Baumgartner Space Parachute Jump Shatters Live Web Video Record - Peter Kafka - Media - AllThingsD

A multifaceted record-setting event
"Meantime, I believe that Baumgartner, his sponsor Red Bull and YouTube have already set a record: By YouTube’s count, there are more than two million livestreams of the event going out around the world. (Update: The audience for this one kept climbing as Baumgartner did. Latest total: 8 million) The previous record for a single Web video service: Around 500,000 concurrent streams, which Google served up during the Olympics this summer."
