at Cherry Pie. Haven't seen that in ages.

All this nostalgia and watching these videos just shows what a gaping hole Mtv left in the cultural landscape when they switched formats.

iTunes would get it from your computer to your iPod. The trouble is downloading the video from MTV to your computer.

I had the same problem when I clicked on the link in the forum and the site. I restarted Firefox and then it worked. It seems to also happen to me on youtube. Must be some kind of flash issue with Firefox.

I'm amazed the guy who started this thread admitted that he works for MTV. For the past 10+ years I've been thinking that if I worked for MTV the way it is now, I'd probably hang myself.

GREAT site though assuming they don't screw it up. The sound doesn't seem to be working on the videos linked through this board, but that's probably just a temporary glitch. REALLY glad there's no bugs or other on-screen crap and they seem to be complete from beginning to end. One more reason to save up and get a computer that can hook up to the big screen and sound system (I have to upgrade those before thinking about that though!)

my guess is they severely underestimated how popular this site would be. it's crawling for me. Anyone else?

They also need a suggestion box. 2 videos i would love to see again but aren't there are "Play the game tonight" by Kansas and "Wind Him up" by Saga.
