In addition, Singingfish (http://www.singingfish.com), one of the Web’s premier video and audio search engines, and its network of search properties will also feature content from MTV Networks.

“We’re excited to work with MTV Networks to further extend our leadership in video search and provide consumers with one of the most comprehensive sources for discovering the breadth and quality of video content available across the Web,” said Kevin Conroy, Executive Vice President of AOL Media Networks.

“From ‘The Daily Show’ and ‘Lazytown’ to ‘Unplugged’ and ‘My Fair Brady,’ MTV Networks’ library of video programming is vast and in-demand,” said Jason Hirschhorn, Chief Digital Officer, MTV Networks. “Through AOL Video Search, consumers now have access to some of the most sought after and beloved programming available on the Web. This extends our quest for ubiquity and will help drive traffic to our destinations.”
