Well it clearly did

With all these music channels (which are rapidly growing) who needs the radio anymore....(unless your on the move. eg in a car or summet)

I don't think has/will, I still listen to loads of radio, when I'm driving, and through my digibox.

I listen to the radio when driving which accounts for about 3 to 4 hours a day to and from work which is a lot more than I view the music video channels - I sometimes have a radio online as well when surfing.

Radio > music channels.

I hate it when a music channel, hypes up a band so much, play their music all the time... It makes you hate the band.

Sure, music channels can make bands, but they also break them.

The first video ever shown on a tv channel was video killed the radio star- the first and only song by that band.

First on MTV - Music Videos have been around since the 60's/70's.

I find even when I'm at home I prefer to sit down and listen to radio than watch music tv sometimes.

You simply can't find the variation found on BBC stations (esp. Radio 1 in the evening) that can be found on tv.

It wasn't even the only hit they had never mind the only song (anyway what was on the B-side if it was the only song?!)

The first one being Bob Dylan - Subterranean Homesick Blues.

Aah, pointless pop trivia...

Good tune though.

Just telling a mate earlier when it came on the dukebox, Suberranean Homesick Alien by Radiohead: my fav song title... just rolls off the tongue and pays tribute to Dylan.
