Yahoo Music Video Player beta now Mac friendly
A tip o' the sparkly New Year's hat to Download Squad for noting that the beta version of the Yahoo! music video player is now OS X-friendly, both in Safari and Firefox. Yahoo's player lets you pick videos for your playlist from an extensive library and creates recommendations based on your choices. For what it's worth, I didn't pick this playlist myself. Really. I don't like The Fray, and OK Go... fine, I admit it, I'm just old.
While you can't resize the playback window, the video quality is pretty good, and the sound (obviously important) is fine. If you're frustrated with VH1's Windows-only video library and tired of searching YouTube for tunes, the new Yahoo! player might do you good.

Letting iTunes keep my library organised is what keeps me sane. I've got all my CDs ripped onto an external hard drive and I really couldn't be faffed to do all the organisation myself - that's well over 2000 albums!
What does annoy me is that my video files are all over the place at the moment - I'm waiting to see what the new 'iTV' does because at the moment I've got things in the 'Movies' folder and in the iTunes music folder which doesn't quite make sense - maybe there's a way around it but I haven't bothered to look yet.
But the idea of organising my own music files? Fills me with dread!

Yes! Finally!
It works fine for me, better then on my PC. Finally, a company that recognizes that Macs are worthwhile supporting.
