[rec.music.gaffa] All right, all right -- it's an MTV stunt

I have changed my mind.  The pirate thing is an MTV stunt.  However,
I can't understand them at all.  To me it seems obvious that the
publicity they gain by this technique in no way compensates for 
the animosity they cause by cutting into videos.  After all, every
video they show is *somebody's* favorite, and that somebody will
not be inclined to watch the new show if his favorite video was just
ruined by a commercial!
