PlayStation 4 users can now stream music videos for free

In addition to being available on the PlayStation 3, VidZone can now be downloaded on the PlayStation 4 as well, Sony announced on its PlayStation blog. The application lets users stream music videos for free on the console and has been “fully optimized” for the PS4 to offer “faster start up times and quick navigation,” as well as “enhanced social integration features” including grabbing screenshots and sharing them with friends over Twitter and Facebook directly from the PS4 controller, and having VidZone activity displayed in friends’ “What’s New” feed. The VidZone application offers access to thousands of HD music videos and support for creating unlimited playlists and watching hundreds of VidZone TV channels. The app can be downloaded free of charge from the “TV & Video section” of the PS4’s home screen, or from the “App” section of the PlayStation Store.

Nice one Sony - once again proof that listening to your fanbase can have a positive effect.

If they would be listening, they would allow me to use the damn 30 day trial of Music Unlimited, and stop saying my credit card number is invalid, or at least let me use my damn paypal, which I add funds to the Wallet with! C'mon Sony, what more of my address do you want I gave it all already!?!?!?

Vidzone started out as a nice idea, but was shonky as hell.

They've been updating this regularly and it now has a really slick UI, updated with loads of new (and old) videos every week and it's an awesome application. The social features are very cool if you're into that.

My only gripe is the advertisements; give me the option to pay a small fee, either to subscribe or just to use it 'ad free' for 24 hours, like if I have people round. The reason it bothers me so much is twofold; they have like 5 ads repeated over and over and they are FAR too loud. Fix these and it's pure gold ;o)

Hey, have you tried out the other music video app on the PS3 that streams concerts and live shows? I think it's called Quello or something like that. You seem to have a well-articulated opinion on Vidzone, so I'd like to hear your perspective for the other service. I haven't used either one.

G20WLY3791d ago

Thank you. No, I haven't tried that one. Actually, I haven't heard of it either! I'm in the UK, so I suspect this one might be a US only app?

I'll certainly look into it though - thanks again! :)

I might have to download this and see how it is. Music Unlimited still only works intermittently for me, and I'm getting tired of it (I've been a subscriber since around its launch and never had these kinds of problems).

I can do this on anything. All i need to do is go on Youtube, this is hardly anything to get excited about.

jjb19814h ago

That's awesome because I really want to know what matchnaking is.

shadowknight20351m ago(Edited 50m ago)

It's a word originated in the year 2024 on a gamer news comment section, not often derived by a misspelling to the word matchmaking, matchnaking much more often refers to a carnivore like behavior which is usually referenced to describe how a person eats there food.
