It's a shame but I feel YouTube has killed MTV where you can watch any music video you want.

MTV is like 90 percent Rob Dyrdeks stupid show now anyway isn’t it? Or is it just like that here in Canada?

What's a "music video"?

I don't know anyone post mid-20's that watches them. It's always been a marketing tool to capture young audiences.
