Additional content -- such as artist interviews, discography, tour information and "making of" footage -- is available as well, so viewers can build a deeper connection with their favorite artists. Viewers can browse and select specific music video programming from either an Eagle Rock-branded music block, or from the multiple genre blocks and artist showcases within Gotuit Music On Demand.

"Eagle Rock Entertainment has one of the largest collections of live concert footage from major artists, and we're extremely pleased to bring this exciting music programming to VOD through our Gotuit Music On Demand service," said Gotuit Media Corp. President Mark Pascarella.

"VOD is a powerful new distribution channel for music video programming, allowing consumers to control what they watch, and when they watch it. The Gotuit service adds even greater value by enabling consumers to control how they watch content," Pascarella added.
