Dear friend of THE TUBE Music Network,

We regret to inform you of the fate that has befallen The Tube Music
Network. October 1, 2007 The Tube ceased its national broadcast.

Viewers, Artists, Music Companies, Investors, Business Partners, TV
stations, Cable companies, Advertisers , Friends and our creative
partners @Radical Media - your support of The Tube has always been
highly valued and appreciated. The collective efforts of this team,
fueled by the letters we received from viewers, sustained THE TUBE as it
struggled through the financial limitations that ultimately contributed
to its incapacitated state.

Thank you for inviting The Tube Music Network into your life.

Sincerely,

The Tube Music Network staff

Of course! You get a bare bones, no bullshit (early VH1 ring a bell?)
music video channel THAT RUNS ON AIR (not cable for us cheap bastards)
and it runs into the ground. It was a breath of fresh air and I'm
sure will be missed (us cheap bastards).

Maybe there were commercials, but not many, and very cool promos.


If interested, John and Paul are in them. They're on the site.

It was created by the same guy who created MTV and VH1. I had it on
cable, but yes, it was on digital TV.

This was the other one - even better than VH1 Classic - but it wasn't
available in many places. I do see Seattle on their map.

You're talking about something else.

When YouTube goes "legit", 99.9% of what "we" are creating won't make it.

Uh oh, You have GoogleEarth???

So, how much of Seattle did you see?
The mountain you see outside Seattle is Mt. Rainier, an active but dormant
volcano.
It blows. we're toast.
Would that make me a toasted postee???

Hmm. You landed on a Chance Card space. It says, 'Go back to math class.
Go directly back to math class. Do not pass Go, do not collect 100
dollars and 90 cents.'
