My parents didn't subscribe to cable until 1985. Before that I watched my music videos on a show called M2V in San Francisco courtesy of KTVU Channel 2- now the Fox station.
I remember while channel-surfing I came upon MTV in 1981 I was so happy that my cable company finally provided it that I jump up and down like a maniac.
@CultureCrash9 I agree! What does MTV, TODAY, hope to accomplish with their current programming? In my opinion, if MTV would play MUSIC (that's MUSIC! NOT rap/hip hop and/or these STUPID soap-opera-like dramas/skits aimed at teenagers and/or young adults), the generation who were born in 1980-or later, wouldn't be so dimwitted about music.
@imachildofthe80s8089 yes the fabulouse 80's used to goto my aunts to watch mtv back in the day since we didnt yet have cable wheer i lived also every week i used to go watch fraggle rock when it was on hbo

I love it. It's hard to imagine now that MTV was once cool. The Talking Heads? Pat Benatar? The Police? David Bowie? Those were the days!
