MTV Music Channels Sign Off Forever With the One That Started It All: 'Video Killed the Radio Star'

    I keep reading that MTV is gone, but I still have MTV, MTV2, and MTV Classic. I'm watching Metal Mayhem as I type this. So, WTF is going on?

    MTV's all music channels are gone.

    Ok, "all music." That makes sense. But, I'm pretty confident MTV Classic airs nothing but music video programming. MTV and MTV2, not so much.

    Maybe they will be adding other programming to it. I only skimmed an article that said the all music channels were gone.

    They shut down their music only channels in Europe and with online journalism being what it is today , it spread around like all of MTV everywhere was going away.

    That's when MTV's main channel stopped playing music video. The side channels continued to air music videos, but nobody watches those, including people who like to complain about MTV no longer playing music videos.
