Google sites, including YouTube, acounted for a whopping 37 percent of those sessions, racking up over 2 billion of them, and also attracted the largest audience with 149 million unique viewers. Music video publisher Vevo followed, with an audience of 63 million uniques, trailed by Yahoo sites with 52 million.
