Videos on Deezer? Give us your feedback!

:movie_camera:What if…we add videos to Deezer?

 

 

Here at Deezer, we listen. And for that reason, audio is simply perfect :dvd:

Nevertheless, video continues to take over everywhere, and if you love to listen to your favorite artists, maybe you want to see them too?

 

We'd love to hear from you on this subject!

 

  • What do you think?

  • Would you like to have videos on Deezer?

  • Why/why not?

  • What type of video content would you be interested in?

  • Where in the app would you prefer to find them?

 

 

If there's anything you have in mind that doesn't fit in with the questions above, don't be shy. Let us know how you think this can work on our platform :nerd:

Only for concerts and music videos but the music intended for listening should stay as it is, maybe make way of packaging albums to have more images and content so simulate a Vinyl copy experience. But still have a mode thats minimalistic streaming and then a mode that is more fan related.

No thanks. 

Best to do what you do so well! 

Besides, requires greater bandwidth, more data and probably more dollars for a subscription.  

I love Deezer as it is. Please dont tinker.

Adding Videos would be probably the best idea and change that would happen in Deezer.

Currently 50% of my day goes in YouTube, so I can watch… well… music videos. The same goes for my friends.

Especially when you have home gatherings, everybody starts streming some music… videos. 

The user should have the ability to choose only videos, or only music. The mixes should be also separate. 

For example, I might watch a lot Marilyn Manson videos, but would not watch some dumb dubstep clips which I might listen to. (That’s just example)

“Video Flow” would be also cool. 

Showing the lyrics on top of the video would be even better.

 

One cool thing which misses everywhere is to be able to switch dynamically between video/ song. E.g. you find a cool song, but haven’t seen the video, you become interested, however the video is available in Deezer’s library, there should be a button to quickly switch to the video. 

 

Thank you and I hope videos finally arrive. I’m tired of youtube.

That’s open on YouTube music. You can fly from song to the video and other way around.

Well, that’s only good thing about it… hope videos music in Deezer.

That shouldn’t be the case as long as they offer 4K videos only as Hifi perk.

HD Full should be then Premium perk and free users can enjoy only SD video. Video traffic can add the cost of streaming, but I guess they can sort it out without going at your wallet too much.

Apple Music offers video streaming at less than 5 euros, Tidal also at 5. I guess it’s not that big issue.

Each to their own I guess. 

 

I bought some Sonos gear and got a free 12 month subscription to Deezer, about 7 years ago. At the time Deezer wasn’t well known, it was all about that other Spotty streamer , but I was hooked. The ever expanding library, the sound quality, the ease of use, all of these things are what I like. 

If Deezer offered video, I would hope that it would simply be a different type of subscription. For me, I would choose audio only. Where I live and travel, Deezer plays in my home or my car, we travel very long distances and our phone networks are patchy to say the least, buffering and saved playlists  takes care of the WiFi black spots. 

I have an Amazon/ Prime subscription. Being a Gen X kid from the 70s, Amazon has a massive library of music videos,  concerts, classic albums, docos, etc that I am exploring. Just watched Deep Purple Live in Verona in 4K through my home cinema. What an amazing experience.

I can’t understand why people think that the video will eat their data and that’s why it should not be implemented…? Play the videos if you want to. I guess they won’t be forcing anybody  as any other isn’t.

Only if it’s special videos with a commentary about the song made by the artist, or the Official Music Video. It should be optional, and canvas-like (similar to Spotify). However, I personally don’t like that feature in Spotify (nor the Spotify app itself, that’s why I’m a Deezer customer). Like other people have already said in the replies, this isn’t YouTube. What I love the most about Deezer is the interface and the lyrics, I don’t see how adding videos would keep it simple just like it’s always been. But I wouldn’t mind as long as it is optional, it might even attract more customers to the app. If it’s incorporated in a way that doesn’t entirely change the interface, cool!
