- Worth it? That's a strange question. The live show was free for anyone to view. Any viewer who was not satisfied with the show is entitled to a full refund of $0.00. I assume that YouTube got all of the performers to donate their time and energy, so it was definitely worth it for YouTube to promote itself.

- Although the users may have been able to watch for free, I highly doubt the performers were not compensated. It was a live show, not a charity fundraiser.
