Africa says "I want my MTV!" and gets it finally
Quote:
Of course I'm going to still see some one say... "MTV Sucks since they don't play music videos anymore..." while that may be true, obviously there's not much revenue on just music videos as we can see from any of their competitors Much Music and Fuse, both of which are very limited in scope and households across the world. What I do find most interesting and if you ever get the chance or other people who do get the international channels. The local flavor is really interesting. It's almost like the old days of old radio where you'll not just hear the Clear Channel commodity but you'll also get some of the local bands and influences. As a company I know alot of the things we do for charity, benefits, awareness, etc. One of the first things they will air is about HIV/AIDS awareness.

Seriously though the reason why music channels that actually play music video's aren't as popular is because they're all bought out and play the same fuckin video's OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER again (this includes these pops stars who keep recycling the same songs) and people get tired of seeing them. Not to mention at LEAST 85% suck balls and shouldn't be classified as music, or a music video. People get tired of seeing the same crappy ass music video's over and over again, and the ones that are actually good it seems like they play once a month if that many times at all. MTV was much better in the begining years where it didn't have as many video's to play and it gave everyone a shot and 90% of them were actually good because talent was actually in. It's great that Africa finally have the station. MTV talks about them enough already it's about time they brought the station over to them.
Asta!!

I'm sure we'll see a similar impact maybe not as great since they have had other TV influences over the years.
