I had wanted to use the word elitist actually, but I couldn't think of it right away. I don't have a copy of anything off of MTV on my comp, no. I have tons old MTV stuff in my actual physical collection, you know on cds, that you pay for with money. Hell, I prolly have more stuff that was played on MTV than most IDM people, but none of the shit they play nowadays. And they don't play Aphex much at all, gimme a break. I should have qualified my statement by saying newer teeny bopper mtv, and instead of just one track said a good amount. I exagerrated a bit when I said ten foot pole, but I actually do think the vast majority of the stuff they play is shit. Most anything you name that they play I can name something better in the same vein that is better which they don't. what are you doing sticking up for mtv anyway? Maybe you'll agree with me if they get around to taking Soulseek down, which I think was a godsend. I've bought more cds because of Soulseek then ever because of it. p.s. I dig the Osbournes for sure though. On Tue, 18 Jun 2002, No one in particular wrote:
