    Too bad there isn't anything remotely watchable on MTV.

    Red face MTV launches HDTV.

    MTV Networks is set to launch a high definition (HD) channel from January.

    The US company will base its studios in the ski resort of Vail during the winter months and hopes to provide round the clock high definition programming, including three hours of live shows a day.

    Tony Dunaif, an MTV executive, believes HDTV and music videos are a profitable combination, stating that young people "are the ones who will buy the sets first".

    According to statistics from Kagan Research, 17 per cent of American households will have an HDTV by the end of the year.

    One wonder if they have enough music video content in HD to fill out the time slot, or they will mostly be filled with reality shows as they are doing now. If latter-as you said, it will be a waste

    MTV has really lost their way. Looks like most of their program executives are fresh out of business colleges trying to do "new" things in youth TV domain. Alot of flashy programings, fast moving, and loud. Followed by sex driven commercials. And may be a video or two in between

    Oh come on. If you mute the sound and walk out of the room MTV isn't all that bad. Give it a chance.
