So you didn't have the time or money to hop the pond over to Palm Springs to experience the epic Coachella music festival? Not a problem, YouTube has got it covered. Literally.

The massive video library has created its own live-stream channel, appropriately named YouTube Live, and Coachella was the first partner to offer to broadcast live content for the channel from April 15 to 17 (US time). Among the lineup of over 100 performers include top acts The Strokes, Arcade Fire, Mumford & Sons, Kanye West, Cee-Lo Green, Kings of Leon and Duran Duran. If you aren't already in-flight to take part of the madness first-hand, just sit back and watch it all go down on the Coachella live webcast for all three days of the festival.

Although YouTube isn't the first site to introduce a live-stream channel, they certainly will have the most advanced webcast program, one that will cater to individual users based on their interests online and undoubtedly be sought after by big-name events worldwide.
