Yahoo! Music Video 3.0 beta now available

Those music hounds over at Yahoo! have set loose a new beta version of their music video player today. Video 3.0 should have wide appeal since it's built on Flash technology and is therefore both Firefox- and Mac-compatible. Another change is that you can basically do all your navigating within the pop-up video player, and it's a big improvement over the fairly poor navigation Yahoo offered before. Other abilities being touted are Ajax-oriented, like being able to drag and drop favorites onto a playlist (we couldn't get it to work in the video player, though it's easy enough to add videos to your queu without dragging and dropping). There's also a video recommendation option so that you can share your likes and dislikes.

We like the fact that Yahoo offers such a huge video of free music videos, and now that catalog is easy to search and navigate, too. Very nice. Link: Music Video
