Good news for music fans in Britain. Music videos are coming back to YouTube.
Google-owned YouTube and the Performing Rights Society for Music (PRS) said Thursday they have reached an agreement which would allow premium music videos to be shown again on YouTube in Britain, six months after they were pulled.
YouTube began blocking certain copyrighted music videos from major artists from being shown in Britain in March until the dispute with the music licensing group could be resolved.
YouTube, in a blog post, said the agreement with PRS was "good for everyone involved, including the YouTube community, music fans, the record labels, YouTube, and the songwriters and composers the PRS for Music represents."
"In the coming days, premium music videos will begin to come back to our UK users," YouTube said. "We know it hasn't been easy for our British users who love music, but today we're pleased to say: 'Let the music play on!'"
