Streaming Internet TV streams are increasingly popular. According to Nielsen’s Online report for March released on Monday. Internet video watching by US residents showed a 1.9% growth in viewer numbers.

Total streams watched grew by 8.7% and time watching a stream per viewer rose by 12.6% compared to February.

YouTube is still the daddy of video sites and showed a healthy lead in its share of the market. It streamed an eyestraining close on 5.5 billion video streams, giving it 56.6 percent of total video views. Hulu was a close second showing close on 348 million streams.

Then come the usual suspects in Yahoo, Fox, and Nickelodeon who are always kicking around those second tier of places showing 232 million, 207 million, and 196 million video views respectively.

This shows despite some gloom and doom merchants that online TV and video is increasing month on month, and that the demand for internet TV grows ever stronger. The real winner is still Hulu who grow in leaps and bounds showing a total of 8.8 million unique users who watched 40 video streams each.
