You thought that MTV was to surrender to all mighty YouTube and substitute even more of their music videos with reality shows? Well, you thought wrong. With the re-launch of their new website, http://www.mtvmusic.com/, they go after YouTube and their illegal use of music videos by allowing users to watch, rate and share all videos in the library.
The recording industry is no big fan of YouTube and how they loose control of distribution of their artists music videos. Perhaps they trust MTV instead of Google to be their distribution channel of choice in the “new” world of the Internet. We have all seen crappy versions of classic music videos on YouTube and we’ve gotten used to watching videos in poor quality in tiny boxes. This is great news for those who have invested a lot of money in expensive hardware for listening to music from their computer, they can now enjoy good qulity video.
I love that I can now watch classics like the one below in good quality in the comfort of my own computer. I still love my MTV!

One of the most challenging tasks when being architect on a large project is to keep some kind of track on what developers are doing while you are wasting away time in planning meetings and all other kinds of useless management activities. In the Flex echo system there are very few tools which help you [...]
