Want to see a great collection of Heavy Metal videos online? Try MetalVideo.com – a brilliant flash-based service that streams the heaviest rock videos hosted on brightcove.

I discovered a couple of old tunes by bands I used to love – like Megadeth – and got introduced to a couple of metal acts I’d never heard of before, but really liked.

I might be wrong, but the quality of playback and the user experience on brightcove videos seems to be a bit better than what you get on YouTube. And while YouTube undoubtedly have a bigger database of tunes, MetalVideo.com hand picks them, which makes it easier to discover new bands.

Let’s face it, any chump can search for a band they know about. It’s discovery services like this that make it easy to find music you’ll like. I’m sure there are plenty of others out there for different genres.

Just so you can get a sample of the quality of Brightcove, here’s Machine Head’s From This Day video.
