This Is Why MTV Doesn’t Show Music Videos Anymore

We can’t remember the last time that we flipped to MTV expecting to see a music video, but it’s safe to say that it was probably in the early ’90s. This hilarious video by Brian Firenzi and Maria Del Carmen of 5 Second Films, which we spotted on Uproxx, explains why the network abandoned its roots, and while it might be a comedy sketch, it is rather on point. We killed music videos with our Napsters and our LimeWires, and what’s more, we’re old now — MTV doesn’t really care if we don’t like Teen Mom 2. Also: there’s the Internet. Click through to check out the clever clip, but be warned: It kind of stings when Firenzi points out that the complaint that MTV doesn’t play music videos anymore is literally old enough to drive a car by now.

Also, I feel bad for poop_of_death

It sucks when a post you made gets rejected and then accepted by a different mod & user later.

Yeah, I have better thing to do than hold a grudge against people I don't know in real life, but it does discourage posting. I know I have cut back on the amount of posts I create due to situations like this.

I don't get why this comment has a purple background and all the rest has a blue background.

Do you read ONTD from your friends page?

That's the ONTD background.

I thought of poop_of_death when I saw this post.

But it happens, mods are human too.

I'm not convinced all the mods are human.

:-P

this happened to me a lot. that's why i stick with certain types of posts. lol. one mod will allow something another mod wouldn't, especially if there's 10+ posts about the same thing.

it's so annoying too.

esp with political posts. they'll allow politics on ontd but only for some random topics or if a mod is in the mood.
