Whois & Analysis for 2conv.com

YouTube is an American video-sharing website headquartered in San Bruno, California.

The service was created by three former PayPal employees—Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim—in February 2005.

Google bought the site in November 2006 for US$1.65 billion; YouTube now operates as one of Google's subsidiaries.

The site allows users to upload, view, rate, share, add to favorites, report and comment on videos, subscribe to other users, and it makes use of WebM, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, and Adobe Flash Video technology to display a wide variety of user-generated and corporate media videos.

Available content includes video clips, TV show clips, music videos, short and documentary films, audio recordings, movie trailers and other content such as video blogging, short original videos, and educational videos.

MPEG-1 and/or MPEG-2 Audio Layer III, more commonly referred to as MP3 (or mp3), is an audio coding format for digital audio which uses a form of lossy data compression, which are data encoding methods that use inexact approximations and partial data discarding to reduce file sizes significantly, typically by a factor of 10, in comparison with a CD, yet still sound like the original uncompressed audio to most listeners.

Compared to CD quality digital audio, MP3 compression commonly achieves 75 to 95% reduction in size.

MP3 files are thus 1/4 to 1/20 the size of the original digital audio stream.

This is important for both transmission and storage concerns.

The basis for such comparison is the CD digital audio format which requires 1411200 bit/s.

A commonly used MP3 encoding setting is CBR 128 kbit/s resulting in file size 1/11 (=9% or 91% compression) of the original CD-quality file.

A web browser (commonly referred to as a browser) is a software application for retrieving, presenting and traversing information resources on the World Wide Web.

An information resource is identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI/URL) that may be a web page, image, video or other piece of content.

Hyperlinks present in resources enable users easily to navigate their browsers to related resources.

In computer networks, to download is to receive data from a remote system, typically a server such as a web server, an FTP server, an email server, or other similar systems.

This contrasts with uploading, where data is sent to a remote server.

A video hosting service allows individual end users to upload and share personal, business, or royalty-free videos and to watch them legally.

Users generally will upload video content via the hosting service's website, mobile or desktop application, or other interface (API).

The type of video content uploaded might be anything from short video clips to full-length TV shows and movies.

The video host stores the video on its server and offers users the ability to enable different types of embed codes or links that allow others to view the video content.

The website, mainly used as the video hosting website, is usually called the video sharing website.
