Search doesn't yet cover the video, only music and movies. Online video is in 13 categories, similar to YouTube, such as entertainment, film and animation, comedy etc. You can choose which to show on your web video page. Video selection is pretty limited. Film has recent trailers (Iron Man), entertainment much older trailers (Close Encounters) and I don't see any of the obvious online series, such as KateModern. Animation includes South Park and Happy Tree Friends. There’s also a web video hype chart (popular videos) and listing of what I’ve been viewing. Broadcast TV recommendations are not yet working. All told, it looks good, but hard to tell if it’s working effectively yet due to a limited range of content.
