“Weird Al” responds to the controversy over “Kazaa” and “Grokster” being bleeped out of the MTV-approved video for his track “Don’t Download This Song”: “[MTV] told me that they would refuse to air my video” otherwise. “Instead of subtly removing or obscuring the words in the track…I made the creative decision to bleep them out as obnoxiously as possible, so that there would be no mistake I was being censored.” He helpfully adds: “The uncensored, ‘nonridiculous’ version can be seen on my YouTube and MySpace pages.” Don’t download, but do stream from official sites. OK, got it. [NYT]

This isn’t the biggest problem with MTV Music.com. The biggest problem is that they have one video a piece by Pulp (”Like a Friend”) and Blur (”Coffee & TV”). But this is totally #2.
That’s fantastic!
Don’t forget to share around “You’re Pitiful”. Yay Al! Boo MTV and Atlantic!
