Vidzone’s Big Update
Improvements and huge catalogue updates.
Published: 15:03, 17/08/2010 by Peter [Colossalblue].
19We’re a touch slow with this one but it’s not our fault. We’ve been listening to so much new Vidzone stuff that we haven’t had time to tell you about it. Blame them, pesky music video providers.
So here it is, a massive update to Vidzone which promises to make the PlayStation 3 music app start up “exceptionally faster” and process the regular content refreshed quicker too. They’ve also added the ability to regulate whether you get low, medium or high quality videos so you have more control over your banwidth use if you’re on a limited service.
That’s not all. Vidzone have secured a deal with EMI to allow the music industry giant’s massive catalogue of artists to be present on the service. This gives us access to artists like Chemical Brothers, David Bowie, Daft Punk and Iron Maiden as well as Coldplay, Katy Perry and Kylie – if that’s more your cup of tea.
Vidzone continues to be a fantastic service for the PlayStation 3 and they continue to listen to feedback and support it in a very meaningful way. We’d like to say a big congratulations on the EMI deal and huge thank you for continuing to make improvements to the free application.

I haven’t used it much recently so perfect excuse to try it again now especially with the EMI addition.

To be fair, there isn’t really any music to my tastes on there anyway, but I did update yesterday. The UI still seems really confusing. Usually PS games/apps are quite intuitive X=enter, O=exit, etc, but I struggle to navigate Vidzone.
