This sucks.
In my mid 20's I was a Cable TV Exec. I worked for one of Mtv's founders. You young'ns don't know this, but Mtv (and VH1) were once shapers of the music industry. It was one hell of a time. The entire reason for music videos was Mtv (VH1 came later).
All gone. All of it, gone. It's a sad day. Queue up the Don McLean

@Animeraider pouring one out is warranted but seemingly a bit late. I mean to say, videos were not a part of MTV the last time I looked.
@Animeraider unreality tv changed everything… it ended up being about trends and money… guys like Frank Zappa called them out early ..
@Animeraider I can’t read the article but that sucks in this day and age, when you can store so much digitally they didn’t keep it.
@Animeraider 😞
