The thing is... the crap they show DOES sell, however, it's the type of music that will be forgotten in 3 years, but it DOES sell. If it didn't, they wouldn't show it.
One thing I DON'T understand is... why push shitty music? Why not actively seek out and find talented bands? It's just as much, if not less, work than taking a no talent goon and giving them an image to sell (Britney, Avril, etc). The talent IS out there.
MTV is no longer ran by people in the know, and that's the problem. These old people think that Avril is the next best thing, when really... it's fuckin NOT. It's like those parents that try to be all cool and you can tell they're just really TRYING. I wish they'd wake the fuck up.
If they REALLY wanna get money, they'd have a younger generation person running the show.. someone that can spot real talent.. something that will sell not because it's a trend, but because it's good fuckin talent.. something that will keep on giving year after year, not just a temporary fad that fits well in the next 2-3 years.
Ah well.. one day.
