For those who haven't heard, MTV is putting every music video online they've ever played.
http://www.mtvmusic.com/

Yesterday, the radio said they had about 90% of the videos online now. And if you're currently in highschool or younger, you might curious to know that MTV did actually used to play music on tv.

edit:
I just noticed this is posted on slashdot, so everyone probably already knows.

I'm liking the recent trend with all this online video business.

Still waiting for Southpark Studios to release Southpark online for us Brits though.

You young whippersnappers! Back in my day, we actually got music from the music television! Why, I remember once, I had to explain MTV to my grandfather..

Joke:


Seriously, though, its been years since I watched MTV. In all honesty, I thought they had gone out of business until I heard this. How can you call it Music Television, if you haven't played a music video in years? At least, make "MTV" stand for something else, like "Micro Taco Vacuum" or "Mega Turkish Violin".
I feel either of those would be more appropriate than Music Television, given the circumstances.

If the good lord had intended us to go outside or have a social life, he wouldn't have invented the internet.

Wait, MTV stopped playing music...hmm...mind you not watched it for a long time - though we do have alternative MTV channels like MTV Base, MTV2 and all of that, none of which I watch.

Though this online thing is something I like.

You sir have the moral ambivalence of a mutated shrimp!

Remember the early 1990's when MTV made MTV2, so they had one channel for shows and one channel for music? Yeeaahhh

The greatest music video of all time

The second greatest music video of all time

The third greatest music video of all time

If you haven't seen all three of these videos in their entirety, then you don't have an opinion on this matter. Now where do they keep the "scoffing" emoticon?

And a video you should watch for the sake of making yourself a better person

I get the same problem when I want to view some clips from international sites.
