YouTube says it had 1 trillion playbacks* this year. For some context, Google says that's 140 views for every person on the planet. (It's also more than twice the number of stars in the Milky Way Galaxy.)
Anyone have any idea how it stacks up to TV? How many "video views" are seen through television? We're looking for a comparable stat.
*Caveat: We don't know how Google defines "playback". A quick search through the web doesn't help much, but it seems like it might need 5 seconds of video to count as a playback.
