"The whole point of MTV, from its inception, was to be a 24/7 advertisement to teenagers"
My recollection is that MTV didn't even have commercials when it first started. But otherwise your point is valid. It didn't take them long to change their tune. ba-DUM-bump.

Kinda like jury duty.

But who wants to be normal anyhow? :)
