    Mitsubishi has signed up to be the charter sponsor for MTV's high definition channel, due to start broadcasting next year from Vail, Colorado. This means plenty of Mitsubishi televisions on the set as well as "powered by Mitsubishi" lead-in's galore.This is no surprise since Mitsubishi and MTV previously collaborated on their 25x40' high definition screen in Times Square. Also included in the press release was information on two planned programs for the channel "MHD Top 10" and "MHD Video Stew". Yeah whatever man, just tell me when Amerie is on in high definition, I will be there with popcorn and a Big Gulp.

  • High Def MTV location and VJ announced

    I have to give them credit. If I was MTV and I was starting a new high-def music channel, I'd be looking for some eye-candy for the camera. That's why you'll never see me in high-def. No, MTV never called me; instead, they went with Olympic Skier, Jeremy Bloom. Probably a smart move.When MTV announced their new HDTV music channel, MHD, they really didn't have much info at the time. Now the pieces seem to be coming together with the new VJ announcement and a studio location as well. The new show will broadcast in high-def from a glass-walled studio on Vail Mountain in Colorado. Do you think maybe if I had a ski resort in my back yard, they might have called me? Nah, me neither...
