The internet was fun when it was smaller. Punk and country seem so much more heartfelt and authentic the less produced and polished the music is. Somewhere along the line, things often go from being so rough they're good to so polished they're bad. MTV, besides music, was pretty influential for animators, from what I understand, like a socially palatable form of avant garde. Now that I think about it, I see similarities in the archs of MTV and The Internet.
