Youtube Attempts to Make MTV Even More Irrelevant

When YouTube went down yesterday, millions of ADD-addled nerds were sent into a tizzy—where else would they find that lost Empire Strikes Back clip of C-3P0 pulling down the Wampa warning? But the site's now back online, and they've used that newfound press attention to announce that they're in talks with labels to archive every single music-video ever made. This has to be of concern to big-vaulted nostalgia factories like Vh1 Classic, which has long lured viewers with the promise of random 3 a.m. airings of old Steve Perry clips. But it's good news for music junkies, who will finally be able to (legally) watch insane, midget-intensive videos like this one.
