I have never been a fan of "pop" music (whatever you want to call it)... I lean more toward classical and musicals. So I'm not exaclty a regular MTV viewer. I will only observe that MTV doesn't seem to me to play a heck of a lot of music. The reason I say this (after disclaiming that I don't watch the channel much) is that I am a big fan of Daria. And, for practically the entire time it was on, wherever it was on the schedule, it was preceded by a non-music show and followed by a non-music show. For a long time, for instance, it was sandwiched in between Road Rules and Love Lines. So, maybe one thing to ask is, does MTV play MUSIC to speak of, period? Or has it grown into a more general entertainment channel?
