906,263,561 views at 21:49 ACST and 9 hours 45 minutes from previous comment.
Therefore a difference of 100,973 views across 585 minutes.
Therefore 172 views per minute.
1,000,000,000 views minus 906,263,561 = 93,736,439 views remaining.
93,736,439 at 172 views per minute (x 0.9976 mystery multiplier because why not) = 544979 minutes = 378.457639 days.
It better get faster because the concert is in Feb 2020!
