Our next stage of world domination is complete! Europe is almost ours, ANZ certainly is! VidZone is now live in the following countries:
- JUNE 11 Australia, France, Ireland, Italy, Spain, Germany, UK
- NOVEMBER 26 Austria, Netherlands, Portugal
- DECEBER 3 Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden
- DECEMBER 10 Belgium, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Switzerland
- 2010 You will have to wait and see!
I know some of you were getting worried we couldn’t get it done by the end of the year but (phew) promises kept as usual!
A massive thank you to everyone who helped VidZone launch 18 sites, in 7 languages across 18 countries including SCEE, all our labels, advertisers, translators, the VidZone crew, tea makers, bus drivers… the list goes on! More than anything THANK YOU TO ALL OF THE VIDZONERS OUT THERE for embracing VidZone and being so enthusiastic about the service — we couldn’t have done it without you!

“DECEMEBER”… you should really spell-check before posting…
Please bring VidZone to Japan soon! I moved here a few months ago from the UK and my VidZone no longer works.

I’ve been really impressed with Vidzone so far. Do you have any news on when the last major labels will be represented (EMI for example)? There’s still some massive bands that don’t appear on the service…

Hey great guys!!!
Like it!
Since it’s in Holland I use it every day!
Best PSN service at the moment.
But I have some questions
– Music Request: Coldplay, Justice, Tiesto, Don Diablo, Chemical Brothers
And can we expect some new features in the future? What are your future plans for VidZone? Maby a comment system? That everyone can add a comment by a music video (good for a growing community). Or a rating system. So you can see the most populair songs.
Overal great service, and I hope it will only getting better in 2010! Great support!!!
Regards,
Sami

When the worldwide roll-out is complete I will miss the “Ben, when is Vidzone…” posts*
*Ben probably won’t
Posted on 10 December, 2009 at 4:53 pm by Ben Creasey
Hey X201
I love them. Means people really want the service. But I will love it more when VidZone announces it’s world wide roll out is complete!

Great stuff, been playing with it since it became active in .nl
Lets start of with some requests for basically anything EBM/IDM/Industrial. There is a very little bit, but some front 242, skinny puppy, haujobb, project pitchfork or Laibach would be very nice.
And, knowing their history with Sony, it’s unlikely we’ll ever see Atari Teenage Riot (or Alec Empire), but you can always ask..
On the GUI part, maybe I’m missing something, but when i want to see the latest additions, I just see 20 songs. Is this the whole list, or is there more hidden (it seems like the last) ?
And a last request, browsing by record label would be really handy as well.

VidZone is really a great service for PS3 users. When VZ launched in Finland I noticed there are many artists than appear in the search, but don’t have any videos available, for example my all-time favorite Kate Bush. Also, apparently in the UK there are more videos available for some artists than in other countries. What is the reason for this?

I can’t seem to find it in the PS Store…

Posted on 10 December, 2009 at 4:51 pm by Agamer2006
I have an idea
Why not make a random button.It will find random tracks for you and play them. if you dont like it, then just skip it and play the next random songs. It is a great way to find new songs you will like

Ok I will ask again:
“Will vidzone ever be available in the Faroe islands, which is part of Denmark ?”
21
Posted on 10 December, 2009 at 4:52 pm by Ftwrthtx

Still no clue as to why my VidZone’s menus contain badly translated French texts although both my PS3 and VidZone’s menus are configured to English? Even the install was in French, if it helps any…

Posted on 10 December, 2009 at 5:21 pm by noruraeus
Why did you roll out Vidzone in Belgium? It is not really a country, just a very thick border between France and Netherlands
33
Posted on 10 December, 2009 at 5:22 pm by Deviil-Boy
VidZone is not available in Switzerland

I tried it out a bit and it works pretty well. But why are there a lack of big famous bands like Coldplay and Roxette for example? And it´s a really shame that there no The streets…
