 1 edit | said by Jerkface:something tells me that MTV2 and MTVU and all their subdivisions are just going to become like MTV and pushing everything away from the real meaning of the network: music. Not to mention more places to put more ads and crap Absolutely. Think: Product placement taken to its damn-near illogical extremes.
If the RIAA wants to know why their sales are down, they need look no father than MTV.
Oh, one more thing: Out of the thousands of "records" that are released each year, in the US, only approx. 150 get any meaningful airplay in the US, and far less get in rotation on MTV. One reason why is that the budget isn't there to put those artists on MTV.
Yup, you want to get in any tier of rotation there, you better anti up the really large. They used to call that "payola". Now, they call that an economic model. |
