::"Hey, Remember Us?"

MTV, in an apparent attempt to remind folks what the "M" used to stand for, had launched a new music video site called "mtvMusic.com". i'll note that the majority of music videos being featured are from the 80's, the decade that last saw MTV actually play a music video.

Legions of current viewers and aging previous viewers will laud the release with a resounding "meh" as they go back to scrounging around youtube for Timbuk 3 song they taped off of MTV.

Oh, and you may want to add http://www.mtvmusic.com/video/?id=55086 to your filters.

Well, the good news is that calling upon their vast decades of music history, bands are flocking to MTV…

Oh, wait

Huh, Apparently, MTV doesn't care about it either. That explains a lot.

The notion that they're calling it MTVmusic suggests that even *MTV* forgot what the M stood for.
