Abstract
This article studies the online video site YouTube, as an application that puts together commercial interests from the audiovisual industries, those from the company itself and a cooperative spirit in favour of user-generated content originated by the possibilities of the Web 2.0. We will take a critical view on the prominence that the site still attributes the user, from an analysis of the most watched videos arranged by the site that will try to confirm YouTube's nature as a mainly commercial network.
