This comes after YouTube recently decided to block UK users from accessing premium videos on their site. Graeme Slattery, head of marketing at Muzu.tv, described the website as "purpose-built for the music industry".

When asked what sets the website apart from others of its kind, Mr Slattery said that it "deals directly with the artists, providing videos of reasonable quality". He added that as "the website is run in a totally professional context, rights are clear".
