I know right? Wouldn’t it be great if they stripped MTV’s budget to the point they had to show videos 24 hours/day?

I suspect ridiculousness is even cheaper to air than music videos thats why they play it 21 hours a day.

Yeh probably. The investment to innovate on music video and their delivery methods I suppose isn't cheap and would require a management who really believed in that mission. They'd have to go from making content to delivering it.

Music videos were produced by the record labels and MTV showed them for free. It was free content. You can't get cheaper than free.
