Paramore + Hulu = Awesomeness. A hi-fi artist channel that rocks. Paramore outperforms both on and off the stage. Why do I like Paramore? They are kick-ass live performers. But I’ve never seen them in person. Hulu delivered them to me last year and now again with the brand new Paramore channel at hulu.com/paramore

The major labels’ new video site Vevo is due to launch tonight. A potential upside is that Vevo’s backend is powered by Google and YouTube technology, which may make it easier to integrate social features. It might also fuse somehow with the Google music search. The potential downside is that it could be fueled by greed more than music.
