The famous music TV channel MTV decided to compete with video websites leaders such as YouTube and DailyMotion !
Of course, this new MTV website is not supposed to be used for sharing any type of video content. MTV wants here to launch a reference platform for music video clips, where users can retrieve and watch for any of their preferred music video clip, and not only the latest trendy ones…
The website MTVmusic is a real social network and MTV is playing the community card here: anyone can create a profile, add comments to music video clips, grow a network of friends, etc…

Sidereel is a website where you can find thousands of links to watch streaming videos as on the famous TV Links or Joox, but not only. Indeed this site wants to become the reference for every type of video on the Internet, meaning contents under copyright illegaly streamed as well as legal download sites and VOD platforms.
Almost everything can be found on Sidereel : series, movies, documentaries, TV shows, cartoons, more private videos, music videos, etc…
The model is very simple: user generated content…
As you can read on Sidereel: “You’re the guide - SideReel’s success is based on contributions by users like you. The entire site is editable and anyone can add a page! Feel free to add a review, information about the cast or crew of a show, or a new page entirely. Give it a shot.”

More and more new artists are discovered through their online performance spread over the internet thanks to embedded videos.
If you are good, start with a blog, register on one of the most famous Video Sharing website (such as YouTube) and upload your videos. Then spread your videos on other video sites…
But be patient, because it could take some time before it really spread around…but if you are really good, once the buzz has started, you can expect a huge increase of viewers and maybe a contact with a major !
You don’t believe it ? Concrete example:
Esmee Denters first began to gain awareness by posting cover performances of Beyonce, Alanis Morrisette and Alicia Keys on her YouTube page. Actually she joined YouTube on August 25, 2006.
18 year-old Esmee Denters hails from Oosterbeek, Holland, where she has had 21 million views on her YouTube site since she posted her first performance.
The result ? Esmee Denters has signed to Tennman Records. In addition, to being on tour this summer with Justin Timberlake, she is currently writing/recording on her debut album which is slated for release later this year.

Video Tabs is a great idea for people who want to learn how to play guitar.
Videos can be used for a lot of things, but I find it very useful for knowledge transfer and sharing of experience.
As a great source for free video guitar lessons and tabs, Video Tabs combines quality video lessons served up by YouTube with accurate easy-to-print tabs so that you can more easily learn your favorite songs.
You can search for specific songs you would like to play, or simply watch more generic lessons about how to start playing or learn specific techniques.
A great idea with a real added value for videos streamed by YouTube.
