Word on the street is that Apple TV owners may soon be able to access Vevo's vast music video library. The free entertainment platform is said to be developing an app for Apple TV that will let users watch music videos 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, according to AdAge.
Vevo launched its service in 2009, which lets users watch music videos from the platform's catalog of more than 50,000 videos. The service offers videos from three of the four major record labels, including Universal, Sony, and the bygone EMI.
Apple TV won't be the first device to get Vevo's service: the platform already has apps for iOS,Android, and Windows mobile devices. It also has apps for the Roku, Xbox Live, and BlackBerry's PlayBook tablet.
In July, Vevo renewed its agreement with Google to ensure the service's music videos stay on YouTube. As part of the deal, Google made an investment in Vevo that was speculated to be between $40 million and $50 million.
