Better late than never, they must have thought over at MTV, as they finally strike back at YouTube and open up a new website dedicated to music videos and related footage. I like, the videos are obviously of higher quality as most of the stuff that’s on the Tube which in the case of most 80’s and 90’s music is most often ripped from ye olde VHS tapes.
I also like because it’s possible to embed the videos on your site. They already have a huge amount of music and they’re adding more each and every day. MTV vs. YouTube…. round 1…. ding!
