I'm not sure how I'd react if they actually played music. It's amazing to me how far they've gone off-track. huh

They need to change the freaking name of the channel. So does VHI, but at least they give you channels of VH1 that actually do play videos.

MTV does have several other channels, most of which play videos, at least occasionally.

I remember when MTV played all music, I think I was 15 and back in the 80's.

MTV actually has alternate channels and a few play videos exclusively. Check youe cable company's expanded channels options. You might have to pay extra though grumble

My only problem with MTV playing videos again would the fact that it would just play crappy rap videos sad

I remember when Headbangers Ball first started. What a freaking awesome show that was. Got to see lots of videos by the metal artists that I loved. Then during the day, I'd get Debbie Gibson. Ahhhh!
