I'd be excited if only I watched MTV and if only I could get HOME to work and if only I cared about getting on HOME and cared about buying stuff on HOME. Will Pimp Mah Ride be on there?

Sadly, in the short time after HOME went public, it gave more profit than the video store up until HOME went public.

Is this really a good thing? MTV is garbage. It's been at least 10 years since the M in MTV actually meant anything. Then MTV2 was actually good for a couple years until they decided that people really didn't want a music station that played music. MTVX was awesome until they got rid of that. Anyway, enough ranting about how crappy MTV is now, I guess this is cool or something for the people who like the current MTV.
Before your blood starts boiling, you do know that MTV owns channels like Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, and Spike, right? That means that South Park will be showing up on the video store now along with other stuff from the various channels under the MTV umbrella.

Good. Now the 360 and PS3 can offer similar programs for sale that I'm simply never going to buy.

damn these shows aren't going to be free? I just can't pay per episode... I'll just have to watch things on youtube, hulu, and crunchyroll

I would actually rather buy episodes of TV shows from PSN/XBL compared to buying the discs, only because discs create clutter and I rather not switch discs.

If Rocket Power was up, I'd buy that in a heartbeat.

I had no idea MTV even existed...as for the channel sucking since at least 10 years ago, try closer to 20 (well, it still had Headbangers on Saturday and 120min on Sunday into the early 90's at least).

MTV jumped the shark the day REMOTE CONTROL premiered...."oh good, dumbass fratboys on TV...House of Style heeey thats great....<click>".

I tried watchin Headbangers on MTV2 but really couldn't get past the BLOCKS of commercials they run every 2 or 3 videos for like 2 or 3 minutes EACH time. They must be close to 40% commercial time by now for every 1 hour of programming they do.

At least Palladium shows the odd concert in HD...I'm waiting for Peter Gabriel to roll around again... :p

Oh and PS3 sucks.....who cares what they offer....until KZ2 and GT5 hit, Sony can Suckit.

Yeah youtube and hulu on PS3 are the way to go. Free that is. But if I were to buy shows it'd be on the PS3. It's just a better a movie player than the xbox. Content loads instantaneously, rather the 2 sec stutter/wait on 360. Fast forwarding actually works. On 360, it never stops exactly where you want it.
