Alright - One of my "scholarly interests" is in music and pop culture - I won't get into the specifics here, but might later.

Anyways, this poll is about how you feel about "Music Channels" such as MTV, VH1, and others. I'm interested in which channels you watch, what you watch, and why you watch it. (again, only as far as these "Music Channels" are concerned).

Input and comments are greatly appreciated.

:doh: EDIT - I screwed up question number 3! If you watch MTV or VH1, but not an "other", just answer "I don't watch any "music channels" at all." - Thanks a pantload. :doh:

Since they quited the Zig & Zag show and Daria I don't watch MTV that much anymore.

I tend to watch MTV in a zappy way. IE I zap by it now and then and if there are boobies or less often a good tune I stop and watch.

Well, I no longer have access to any dedicated Music Channels, I currently only have Rage or Video Hits. When I did have access though I used to watch Channel V regularly and occasionally MusicMax. That may not mean much to many of you though, as I have no idea how widespread they are. All I know is that they are available on Austar PayTV.
