As a person who doesn't care for MTV, it would be easy enough for me to say that their music is all style over substance, impractical shiny toys without any real meaning. I certainly wouldn't be the first person to say so. They wouldn't have stayed on the air as long as they have if everyone felt that way, however. Those people who make up MTV's fanbase must find something to appreciate in the broadcasts. Is there some deeper meaning that I can't appreciate, simply because of my lack of cultural background? Or is the truth in front of me; Are they preaching a message of a thing's true value being in its form. Whatever the truth, MTV has undeniably been one of the pillars of today's culture, and none of us shall ever know what might have existed without it.
