I think the music industry can't keep up with the demand that music television has put on the performers. They've got to have new videos, new songs, new albums (CDs), new faces, and they've got to have it yesterday. A radio station can play a song multiple times all day long (as long as the song is good), because of the listening trends of its audience. But a television station can't play the same video repeatedly in one day, it will lose viewership.

I think the country music industry would disagree. There are two full time country music video channels (GAC and CMT) that do play videos almost all day long.

I only get CMT, but if you've noticed in the last few months there have been fewer videos and an increasing number of countdown and even reality shows. I was very disappointed when this started because I enjoyed CMT as background noise.
