Film-style age ratings are being introduced for music videos in a pilot
scheme to help protect children from unsuitable content.
Three of UK's
top music labels - Warner, Universal and Sony - have signed up along
with YouTube and Vevo, but at the moment the initiative is voluntary.
The scheme will see the labels apply for ratings from the British Board
of Film Classification before videos are made available online. The
classification will be limited to the UK, so it will not apply to some
of the most explicit videos by the likes of US stars Miley Cyrus and
Jennifer Lopez.
