Wow! MTV makes their entire archive of Music Videos available online

[aphex]

Finally, MTV does something I like, away from all the stupid reality shows that make up 99% of its programming.

Finally, something useful from MTV!

They need that last 1% dedicated to reality shows so they have no choice but to move all music videos online.

Many of the ones you youtube aren't terribly high quality and you also have to wade through all the shit.

On a side note, the sound quality of these are actually pretty darn good.

It seems to have a connection quality control built into the player, I noticed it just flipped between very high quality to something a bit lower. Its posted on gizmodo, so I wouldn't be surprised if the site is getting hammered.

Check again. They just replaced every file with episodes of Real World.

musictelevisionmusic.com? wtf. this should be MTV's main site dammit.

But I still prefer youtube, until MTV can add something more than a little better quality.

Not available in Canada, great.

Not a single video would play in IE, FF or Chrome for me.

They all showed 3:00 on the timer as a default and about about 15 seconds, I would get a "Share" or "Replay" option. I believe that Sergei the Russian judge is going to have to give this one a 0.0.

 

[Snapster]

US only I think...

 

[Mardeth]

Hmm, worked for me and Im in Finland...

 

[Mardeth]

Also, is that all they have?? Cant be all their music from every national MTV channel...

Thank you MTV, I ditched class in the 80's when you started up, now I can watch it all over again! ok, I just checked and I really hope they add a crapload of videos, only 1 Madness video, 1 SRV video, no Specials video, I clearly remember many, many more.
You can however watch Twisted Sister do an animated version of "Oh Come All Ye Faithful"

 

[AccruedExpenditure]

They've had these up at mtv.com for a while, this is just a way better interface
