NEW YORK, May 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, ZUUS Media announces the launch of
its groundbreaking music video multi-channel network with reach across TV, web, connected
TV and mobile devices. In collaboration with major labels and over 75 independents,
ZUUS will give music fans an expertly curated, lean-back viewing experience. Currently
in public beta, ZUUS will offer 100+ digital channels spanning a wide variety of
music genres and four linear, genre-specific TV channels. ZUUS features one of the
largest catalogues of music videos and will launch original content including live
footage, behind-the-scenes access, interviews, artist-hosted shows and more. ZUUS'
team of music industry experts empowers music enthusiasts to watch their favorite
music videos whenever they want, wherever they want.
"ZUUS fills the void left in the landscape when music channels migrated to reality
content," explains ZUUS co-founder and CEO, Steve Goldstein. "There is a massive
demand for music video content but a lack of destinations for people to sit back
and enjoy it. We're excited to introduce ZUUS to the marketplace; there's nothing
out there like it."
Viewers can search by genre, an A to Z channel listing and by most popular channels.
They also have the ability to bookmark their favorite channels for a tailored experience.
Whether it's a new chart topper, an old favorite or a new artist they've never heard
before, ZUUS provides the outlet for true music discovery and RE-discovery.
"The music video has become a lost art, but remains a prized element of an artist's
expression," said Daniel Glass, President of GlassNote Records. "Thanks to ZUUS,
music fans can once again enjoy the visual creativity of their favorite artists.
Labels recognize the demand for music videos by today's biggest artists, and acknowledge
the gap in the current marketplace for a compelling visual means by which to introduce
viewers to new, emerging artists.  ZUUS is the perfect platform for discovery."
ZUUS is concurrently launching four separate genre-specific music video TV channels
throughout the US.  While still in beta, distribution on ZUUS Country and Latin has
already grown to 50 million combined households. ZUUS plans to round out its linear
TV offering with two more channels: ZUUS Hits (Pop & Rock) and ZUUS Hip-Hop and R&B,
both slated for a Q3 launch.
Also coming soon, expect to see artist-curated channels, festival partnerships, individual
artist pages, mood channels, and more.
