As a means of “reconnecting” with fans, Billboard will soon launch a new Website that will allow fans to watch concerts for free online.
BillBoardLive.com will allow viewers the opportunity to view a concert from five different angles, letting the viewer choose their focus.
Thus far fans will be able to view concerts from Alicia Keys, Usher, David Archuleta, Daughtry, and more. And as an added plus viewers will be able to check out their Twitter and Facebook pages without leaving the concert page.
