MySpace Videos surpasses YouTube

SiliconBeat is reporting that, according to comScore Media Metrix, YouTube has been surpassed in traffic by MySpace Videos, whose traffic doubled in July. This seems to be in contradiction with Alexa, which has YouTube continuing to climb above MySpace. According to comScore, YouTube had 16 million visitors in July--a 20% increase over July--compared to MySpace Videos' 20 million. Required reading to understand these conflicting numbers is SiliconBeat's Web Stats Are Broken. comScore puts MySpace second only to Yahoo! Video, which it says had 21.1 million visitors in July, exceeding YouTube's growth with a 28% increase over June.
