It took a very long time for the internet to be able to handle audio files, and then much longer just to be able to handle video files, so it took almost another generation before we could even watch and listen to music and music videos on the internet. However, still no streaming site for music videos!

The artists and record labels took another generation just to give in to the idea of letting people watch the music videos online for free, as the public started doing it for them, and now record labels do it so the public doesn't have to.

Yet, is there anywhere to go now to watch streaming music videos now?

I know we have lots of audio streaming options like Pandora Radio, iHeart Radio, iTunes Radio, TuneIn, MixCloud, SoundCloud, and Spotify. What about for music videos though?

I know we can look up playlists or make our own playlists on video streaming websites like YouTube, but what about a massive stream that just plays so much, that it reminds you of songs and videos that you forgot about while introducing you to new music and videos at the same time?

I miss the old music video channels. Do they still exist?
I don't know if they do exactly what you're describing but VEVO streams only music video's I think.
