VidZone 2.0 Update: One Week In, Three New Zones! 80’s And 90’s

20 6

Phew, you like it! So… it’s been a week of everyone getting to grips with VidZone 2.0 and after a flood of very, very beautiful feedback from all of you, we think it’s definitely time to continue giving you more. This week as well as loads of new videos and updates to many of our Zones, we also have three brand new zones to unveil for you.

We have decided to dedicate a zone each to what you have always told us was your favourite decades for music videos, the 80’s Zone and the 90’s Zone! Now you can explore both the decade that bought us synthesisers, new romantics, big hair and power ballads or immerse yourself in the 10 years that we encountered boy bands, shell suits, bum bags and novelty pop records (Hanson anyone?). We also have added TV Zone for you to easily browse our many TV Channels. For full details see our Spotlight Zone section below.

For all of you having the “black screen at startup” issue, this issue is now fixed, just relaunch the application and it should work, if not delete the application and re-download from the store and retry. If you are having the issue please email ps-problems@vidzone.tv and we will guide you through.
