“Didn’t the rise of non-music programming on MTV predate the streaming video era though? Real World is late 90s, Osbournes was 01/02 or so - good luck back then trying to find music videos online! And enjoy the realplayer ‘streaming’ experience while you’re at it.”

Correct - didn’t mean to imply that internet streaming video was the only thing that decreased the scarcity of music video that MTV thrived on. Growth of cable/satellite TV, and consequently music channels other than MTV, was of course first :-)
