I Miss MTV Too :(
B&U has a good post up today abut MTV
In our lifetimes, MTV has popped up out of nothing, cut its own place in the world and sat in that place until they completely ditched the M and stuck mostly with the TV.The post is here and it's more a rant about movies and Viacom and biz. But it's a good read.
Viacom's teenaged cash-baby has grown stale to those of us that have been through one too many reinventions. We keep crying out: "Show more videos, you're MTV!." and they keep responding with the very rational argument that they have study after study proving that no one watches videos on MTV no matter what time they air them, and MTV needs to make money as a brand. Videos are no longer financially viablefor Viacom's flagship property.
