    we got to be realistics, mtv put videos of rock bands that young people ´´14 to 21´´ like, this is their goal market, their product : the rasmus, green day, h.i.m, korn, the killers,etc

    i remember when mtv used to play pearl jam,nirvana,ratm,etc videos all the day, 80´s fans feeled disapointing and fustrated like us ´´90´s gen´´ feel today with mtv too...

    i have an idea, lets buy a bunch of mtv award show tickets and boo off all the people that got awards but shouldnt have,like booty rappers and stuff, last year b&b made an apperance trying to get back on mtv so if that happens again we cheer our lungs out, but i cant come so its just a thought, you think they will get the hint?...
    -Let's just say i was testing the bounds of reality. I was curious to see what would happen. Thats all it was:just curiosity.

    I know what you mean but there are enough crap music channels for people who like pop music/rnb and stuff like that.

    I get about 25 music channels and MTV2 is the only decent one, although they rarely play Pearl Jam. There is one called Kerrang which occasionally has a decent video but the rest is all terrible.
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.

    I agree. This 80's child/90's teen is starting to feel old. It's like Bob Seger once said: "Today's music ain't got the same soul/I like that old time rock and roll."

    really the only way I see videos is either on the net or by On Demand TV. MTV does not play videos anymore. Hey remember when they actually played two viedos in a row without any break in between? It's been years, absolutely years.
