MUZU was an independent online music video site with the largest legal catalogue of online music videos. The video catalogue was licensed by record labels such as Universal Music, Warner Music, Sony Music, independent music labels and niche music content owners.

Content includes concerts, music videos, lyric videos, interviews, music documentaries and more. MUZU also powered music video solutions on hundreds of sites and platforms including Microsoft Xbox, Samsung, Sony, LG and Philips Smart TV's, along with some of the largest sites in the world, including: Last.fm, The Guardian, Mail Online, The Telegraph, Bild.de, NME, Rolling Stone, Metacafe and many more. MUZU.TV was founded in Ireland by Ciarán Bollard and Mark French and operated in over 19 countries with offices in Dublin, London and Germany.

MUZU generated revenue through premium advertising solutions; Artists, labels, broadcasters and all music content owners got a revenue share of the advertising revenue generated from plays of their videos on and off the site.

The company called a creditors meeting on 22 October 2015 and revealed that it is heading into liquidation and that Michael Leydon has been appointed liquidator.[2]
