It's all really good music. I found my favorite band "Deftones" by watching MTV. Hell, they even show music videos by My Chemical Romance and Hawthorne Hights.

They don't seem to play music that isn't mainstream.

There are plenty of good bands out there that aren't shown on mtv. This is why I don't like MTV, that and I barely ever see them air music these days.

My favorite part of "1985" by Bowling for Soup: "Back when MTV still played music" or something like that.

Wow. You guys are in good shape. We have, like, three. And they're bad ones...

Some of them only have rap vidoes, which does not thrill me at all...

Do you even know what the MTV generation is? The MTV generation was born between then mid 70's til the mid 80's.
MTV used to be awesome, but for the last decade it has turned to crap.

Lots of people are afraid of pop music.

"you are on MTV, you're a sell out"

People generalize, and say every band on MTV sucks.

Personally, I love pop music, but I find many bands on Mtv SOUND the same, they arent bad, but they are getting samey.

I feel like im listening to the same bands 10 times in a row.

Pop music is just getting boring.

Thats why I really like bands like The Killers, they are actually unique sounding.

Oh, you mean they don't perform Avenue Q anymore. You do know that a musical is like a band, in that they tour, then don't tour, then tour again. That's like saying that Linkin Park split up because they currently aren't touring. >__>

All the do is play mainstream repetitive crap. It lets artists like Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance make millions, while awesome bands like Agalloch never get any recognition:(
