Underrepresentation of music channels
There are several music channels that are underrepresented. One of the most notable examples would be Channel AKA.

They also have low budget music videos which convey that the quality of the music video is not high either.

Onat, music channels are well discussed here. You provide some good information on MTV and how they now incorporate TV shows within their music channels to further appeal to their audience.
ReplyDelete-synergy is discussed in the wrong context. Call that section 'music channels and further attraction for audiences' and here discuss them playing shows and charts etc.
