Petition addressed to: Paramount Skydance Corporation

Paramount should start a music channel to replace the many that have been discontinued, but it should play all kinds of music. There would be a demand for it.

Reason

I have a lot to thank Music TV for. Back when dinosaurs were grazing, my parents bought their first satellite receiver. It was after the system change in 1992. That's when I got to know MTV Europe, which was broadcast on the ASTRA 1A satellite. I got my new music from the morning music block of SKY ONE and the evening/morning DANCEFLOOR CHARTS AND YO MTV RAPS AND MTV PARTYZONE programs of MTV EUROPE. PLUS the German VIVA, right? (Back then, there was no YouTube or Spotify...) They were amazing at music on school radio. (I was already playing music back then) What they played there became a hit at home 3-4 years later, and we were so absorbed in it (it was the Eastern Bloc with Russian interests). That went on until about 1998, and of course I was already swapping cassettes with disco people. I met the best and most correct DJ in the area, Sándor Csupor, and he gave me the impetus to choose this career. I could write more about this (about a book) but now the closure of MTV's music channels is the reason I'm writing. The point is: THANK YOU MUSIC TV! Don't let this feeling and lifestyle be lost in the digital world.

Thank you so much for your support, Héda László, Újszász
