Agreed. Prior to that, they did their annual Spring Break thing, but that was only for a week. Once Remote Control hit the air, we had to deal with frat-boy cheesiness EVERY day. Then, thanks to their policies, music videos ceased being about stylishness and started being about pissing conservatives off at any cost.
I downloaded just about every early- to mid-1980s music video I could find and made my own virtual channel complete with bumpers to replicate what MTV was like in its golden age.
