I guess they can get away with Jive Bunny. I have no problem with it, but would if Glitter was played.

Not so much Vintage, although they played a lot of the same Xmas songs - Wizzard for example, but i've seen songs on different channels at the same time up to 5 times before - usually Rihanna, Beyonce or Taylor Swift as they are played everywhere.

MTV, Bauer, CSC etc all had their own playlists and they all ignored quite a lot. MTV's was larger than anyones.
I think Scouting For Girls Xmas song was only on AATW (NOW) and saw it on MTV's Xmas channel in the 'New Xmas Songs 2015 (or similar) programme.
AATW ignored their own act , Cascada aside the Cascada programmes where Last Christmas was played. The only real Xmas song they played was East 17.
The classics were played far less this year. Bieber was overplayed thanks to his current popularity and they seemed to stick to him, Ariana Grande, Destinys Child and Miachel Buble.
The US had a far lenghty range but they didn't hit our screens.
Still, I prefered that to all this best of 2015 nonsense. It's been a very poor year musically and i'm now being reminded of it!
MTV Stars was useless too.Boasting about however billions votes they had - it was basic spamming by a handful of people and then in the results programme, they didn't play full songs, instead making us endure fan girl Becca Dudley on our screens for far too long.
