Pitchfork.tv Makes Music Videos
Pitchfork.tv: Pitchfork creates new music video site
There is a large gap in quality between internet sources such as youtube and what could be referred to as MTV quality (at least back when they played music videos). A few video hosting sites such as vimeo.com have sprung up, in response to this large quality gap. These sites allow HD quality material to arrive at your computer with no extra cost to the user or creator. With the emergence of sites such as pitchfork.tv and even Oregon’s own opbmusic.org, quality music video content will grow and flourish on the internet. Pitchfork’s new music video site aims to do many of the same things as the pennyjam.com They both strive to offer quality bands, music, and overall content but they differ in one important area. The penny jam places bands in unique locations which lends itself to a native’s view of Portland music- it’s everywhere. If I had a dime for every basement show I heard about, I might have a couple extra clams in my pocket (hey, that’s a lot of shows). Besides, the penny jam’s main goal is to publicize portland bands and businesses. Bands, business, and the penny jam all growing together, what could be better? All said, Portland is not everywhere and pitchfork.tv is a great leap toward quality music content on the internet.
