VIDZONE UPDATE: VidZone Makes A Splash!

25 5

Unless you have been living under a stone for the past week, you should have realised we have released a brand new VidZone patch!

As a quick recap, this includes improved search function, in-store game purchasing, a snazzy new main menu carousel and 100s of brand new TV channels including Artist TV, Genre TV, Label TV and Year TV! Is your favourite artist there? Are you missing a specific Genre? Or do you have any great playlists you remember us featuring that we can create a channel for?

You may have also noticed a new channel magically appearing earlier this week – Sub Focus TV! We’ve had one of the first plays of brand new Sub Focus video ‘Splash’ featuring Coco who is tipped for big things this year and is Sting’s talented daughter – if you’ve not checked it out yet, then we suggest you do!

Enough of that… on to this week’s update…

You may also try contacting us psychically through the power of your mind…however I can’t guarantee you will get a response as our psychic team are usually pretty busy trying to predict future smashes in the world of Music.

By the way… as many of you VidZonians may have guessed this isn’t Ben, he is still sunning himself up on holiday, so it’s Lex to the rescue! He’ll be back for our next blog update, and don’t worry he says he misses you all a lot – in fact I think it’s the only reason he’s coming back to work!

Enjoy!
