    muzu.tv are getting alot of press over the last few weeks (Silicon Republic in particular have wriite a couple of gushing articles). Its a big dig at YouTube considering they have masses of unlicenced music content and are getting their asses sued off by Viacom (MTV). Are YouTube going to go the way of Napster to be replaced by Muzu style niche sites with legit high quality video?

    Youtube's owners are a little more powerful than Napsters I think :)

    MUZU is music-only isn't it?

    Yeah there trying Viacom up in appeals but how long can they keep that up and Viacom is only the most public of their legal problems and not that last ill bet. Viacom are huge them selfs and pretty powerfull ;)

    Yes muzu tv is music only but its a good example of niche site doing a better job. If they do well who is to say that the next one to come along wont take another niche off of YouTube and erode them further.

    Im beginging to think that YouTubes videos are going to be cut back to camerphone and home vids. Admitidly thats still a big market.
