You mean that music with great melodies, meaningful lyrics and world-class
performance and production values? "They" seem to think that people don't
want that sort of thing any more. Now, if it is thrash-metal or RnB
channels you want (strange how black blokes are darker than black women
these days), no problem - I predict at least another half a dozen this year.
My old CMT tapes come out at least twice a week. I can't believe it's not
profitable for them to bring CMT back - the audience may be small, but
they'd be a monopoly in a niche market.

I thought we were talking about country and western?

I'm glad I wasn't drinking a cup of tea or something when I read that or
half of it would have ended up over my keyboard.

I meant that most sincerely, folks. It's just that the only country that
seems to make it big over here is the real drivel like "Achey-Breaky Heart".

I'm with you Steve, it's not all 'Yee Haw' is it!!
I wonder if CMT could support itself if it became subscription, I'd pay.
It would surely help album sales of the featured artists too.
I used to buy CDs when I knew what was around, not so easy to
keep track now.

Bring back Reba, Patty, Lorrie, Travis (no, not the Scottish lot),
Garth, and most of all Deana....sigh.

If you can avoid some of the more poppy stuff ( like where LeAnn Rimes and
Faith Hill have got to) then what you say is spot on. The likes of Chely
Wright,John Prine and Trisha Yearwood are just a few examples of excellent
music makers.

One way is to use a store like cduniverse where you can check out mp3 clips
and follow the links of "people who bought this also bought"

Hi Sim, sounds good, but not ideal for us folk out in the sticks without
Broadband.
On an unrelated note, did you know that Dead Like Me is out on DVD (Region
1)
in early May.
