The miro software provides access to an assortment of videos
(including music videos) online.  It provides all free stuff, no store
access so it won't have the latest block-busters, but does have some
interesting content.  See http://www.getmiro.com/  An older version is
available in the Ubuntu repos.

I found out about it a few months ago at the Worcester Linux Users'
Group (wlug.org).
