Is it me or anyone else agree that music video feature on apple music is half baked product ? It's not highlighted (position on the bottom of the page), no music video playlist, cannot suffle various music video just to makes our appletv playing during the day ....

It needs some work, agreed, but I solved the shuffling issue by creating a Smart Playlist that contains all my music video.
I select that playlist and hit shuffle. Works like a charm every time.

The search for music videos should and could be improved but I have no doubt that will happen soon.

this smart playlist can only contains music or music video that we've added to our music library right ? It will be great if the smart playlist can randomly choose any music (on library or not) as long as it meet our rule set

I tried to create smart playlist for music (not yet tried for music video) which contains several artist name, but I don't know why, it never worked.

I tried vevo for music video, very nice application, we choose several artist name, and there's option to shuffle play any music from these artist. Really simple, nice video to play all day long, and it's free ...

Yes, but not quite the same.
Vevo doesn’t play in the background, Music Videos from music do, albeit once you switch to another app, you have to hit the play button again from Control Center.

And yes, in order for any playlists, including Smart Playlists, to appear in Music it must only contain music that is in your iCloud Music Library.
