Who Said Classical Music is Dying?!?

The YouTube Symphony Orchestra gave a concert at the Sydney Opera House on March 20, 2011. The concert was streamed live around the world, and was viewed by more than 30 million people, which is over three times more views than the famous U2 concert. There were over 3 million streams to mobile devices. Overall, a total of 422 TB of data was transferred, which is the equivalent of sending over 145 million MP3 files around the world.
