YouTube Offers New Video Information Tool

YouTube says companies that use its Content ID tool to locate—and often monetize—copyrighted content that has been uploaded by users on the massive video site will now be able to utilize YouTube Insight, a separate service that provides in-depth data on individual videos’ traffic patterns and audience characteristics.
