Podcasting News -- According to the latest research by Pew Internet, online video is hotter than ever. 57% of internet users have watched videos online and most of them share what they find with others.

Highlights of the research:

The growing adoption of broadband combined with competition among content providers has helped pave the way for mainstream audiences to embrace online video viewing. The majority of adult internet users in the U.S. (57%) report watching or downloading some type of online video content and 19% do so on a typical day.

Young adults (those ages 18-29) are among the most active video viewers. Three in four young adult internet users (76%) report online consumption of video, compared with 57% of online adults ages 30-49. Less than half (46%) of internet users ages 50-64 watch or download video and just 39% of those age 65 and older do so.
