MySpaceTV Gets a Tech Upgrade

As part of an overall makeover rolling out over the next week, MySpace has completely redesigned its video player. Long ago we’d gotten into the habit of avoiding watching video on MySpaceTV because of its atrocious player and load times, so in this case, change is definitely good.

The new player is nicely cleaned up and includes feature additions such as full-screen, remembering your last volume preference, recommendations, timestamps, and international versions. It was developed in-house.

Unfortunately the changes aren’t showing up in embeds just yet, so you’ll have to click through.
