MTV Networks ‘Gets It’ – to Increase Online Syndication of Video Content

Will include sites like Dailymotion, GoFish, imeem, MeeVee and Veoh.

MTV Networks seems to be one of the few companies that realizes the full value of its content with word that it will soon begin increasing its availability to include a number of new video streaming sites.

“We believe in a targeted approach to online video syndication, which means working with select partners who value our content and have the ability to build deep and interactive experiences around it,” said Greg Clayman, Executive Vice President, Digital Distribution and Business Development, MTVN. “By partnering with these premium online video destinations, we’re giving our audiences even more opportunities to interact with our content and each other online, while increasing engagement with our brands and driving viewership back to our core linear channels and Web properties. We are delighted to be in business with partners who respect the value of our content and are proactive about protecting it from piracy.”

Beginning in the coming weeks, audiences across Dailymotion, GoFish, imeem, MeeVee and Veoh will be able to view video from COMEDY CENTRAL, MTV, Nickelodeon, VH1, CMT, Logo, The N, Spike TV, AtomFilms and GameTrailers.

This follows recent news from MTV networks that it would put the entire “South Park” archive online sometime in the near future, as well as that from back in September when it decided to put Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart “Daily Show” archive online.

This move is a smart one if it hopes to fully monetize its content when so many alternatives to traditional broadcast TV exist.
