YouTube is creating an instant medium for aspiring singers and musicians to showcase their work. With a webcam aimed at them, they can instantly broadcast their latest tune to hundreds of thousands of YouTube users. And those users can vote for you. Where are the Judges, you say? Oh - the comments section gives enough drama in the ‘praise and criticism’ section to compete with Paula and Simon.
