Contemporary Media Landscape

Contemporary Media Landscape is the way we use technology to access music videos. We use technology in different we access music videos over the internet on different social media websites, we access music videos mainly using YouTube as it is easy to use and quick. YouTube is a really way to access music videos as you can also share them onto to other social networking sights such as Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr and Google+ and many more, below every music video on YouTube there is a share button so you can share onto the social networking sites. People can share these videos onto the social networking sites to show their friends or for other people to see what type of music they like or maybe they just like the video for it. I use Facebook and Twitter frequently and share the videos to my friends if I find a song I like or just share it for other people to see it, I also have a look at videos by other people have shared on social networking sites to see what type of music other people like.

Spotify is a great way to find new music as I use spotify myself. Spotify has genres of music on there it is also downloadable as and app on your phone which I use on a daily basis and you can also download it on your computer which I also have. To use spotify it gives you and option to log in with Facebook to play your music through the app and it shares on Facebook of what song you are listening to. Cross convergence of Facebook and spotify is helpful for both companies because people will see what you are listening to on Facebook and might also like it aswell which will benefit both companies gaining more people using both of the website and app.

Facebook is a massive way of sharing your favourite music videos online. Not only can you share your favourite songs and videos by your favourite artist but the artists or artist can also do the same by sharing their latest videos.

On tumblr you can share music videos and also you can create a playlist via YouTube and use scm music player to create a running music on you blog whilst browsing tumblr.

Twitter you can also share your videos but you will get music videos promote to you on your twitter even if you didn't want them to appear. This is a way the artists or artist get more views YouTube on their music and promote their songs to to get downloaded to make it into the official chart. 

YouTube plays a massive part to the music industry. Millions and millions of people use YouTube everyday to watch music videos. People can watch them on the go on a mobile app and using a laptop. The most views artists or artist have on their music videos the higher up the music chart they will be due to the popular demand of people watching their music videos.

Other Ways you can look for music video is by watching TV on the music channels, the biggest music channel is MTV because it broadcasts music video worldwide giving the channel a massive wider audience response to the music videos. MTV shows all types of genres of music which is popular because it doesn't just have a precise genre they base the music videos they show. MTV is a 24 hour TV channel showing the latest music and the old music. It is popular because it a worldwide based TV program so there is a never a time of the day no one is watching the TV channel.
