Nice service. Shame neither this post, nor the website itself, mentions the fact it's US only. (At least, every video I've tried comes up with a big red “copyright restrictions prevent this from being played” screen.)

I find it endlessly amusing that MTV has now felt it necessary to start a site called “MTV Music” in which they actually play music videos.

And I suppose it's a Flash issue on my end, but I can't get any of the videos to play in either Firefox or IE.
