Dude, I saw the BET Awards this year, they weren't even that bad. It wasn't all about hip-hop and partying, it was very classy, and they payed a lot of homage to older music.
MTV is just trashy.
C'mon though, have you seen MTV Japan's playlist? They play plenty of Western thug rap and emo rock for a Japanese TV channel, but I guess it'd be like that anywhere in the world. At least MTV Japan does play videos, and some very good artists are on their playlists sometimes.

MTV was on a low budget this year due to fact of low viewship or ratings. Go figure. I agree with u about the BET awards. It wasn't bad at all. It was very classy. My fave awards was the the BET 2005! On man, they had Destiny Child, Will and Jade and just so much more. That award show was really really good! MTV on the on the other hand...
They had to much rock bands, too Hip-hop artists and too much fighting and arguing in one show.
