Who needs MTV?
Here’s a quote from a post of mine from August 2006:
Surely it’s possible and likely that some enterprising music loving person will put together a website that plays music videos back to back. Who needs MTV?
This week, Last.fm launches video on their music-based social networking site, with the aim of having “every music video ever made on the site, from the latest hits to underground obscurities to classics from the past.”
Last.fm really understands the music in the context of social networking – and believe me, music is such a great way to bring people together. If this move to video develops successfully, it could mark the end of video on TV and could seriously dent YouTube’s ubiquity in this area.
