Whi cant I see any official music on youtube?

I searched "california gurls" in google, and there are links to official videos. Click them, and youtube says it cant load movie. Whatever. Now i try another song, when i search for it in youtube it filters out all videos with official music (only crappy live versions show up). I google for official vids, but again, cannot be displayed.

Has everyone just been dealing with this? I dont want a youtube whre i cant watch or hear any decent music....

Youtube hasnt ported everything over to HTML5 yet. Its still pretty much in beta for the iPad. Remember that youtube is a Flash site and the iPad doesnt do flash.

maybe try searching youtube itself on the html5 page or even using the youtube app in the ipad.

I am using the youtube app, but i dont think its a flash problem because all vids work fine except official music ones.

Can you post a link to one of the videos your having a problem with?

Porting music?? Pandora is working great

Both of these work fine on my desktop PC

This is a known issue and doesn't affect only music videos. In time there will be a flash player for iOS to take care of this.

Sometimes official YouTube releases are blocked overseas due to copyright restrictions.

Hmmm... I am in the US, and im fairly certain it isnt a flash player issue. every single official katy perry video doesnt work, so it seems like filtering to me.

Almost ALL Copyrighted music video content cannot be played on mobile devices.
iPhone & ipads included

It's been like that for a whileeeee : )
