Yes, muchly. I quit watching MTV and VH1 for much the same reason I quit listening to the radio - too many advertisements, too little music.

Though I've heard one of the music TV channels is trying to regain their audience by having ::gasp!:: actual music videos as a primary programming element again.

I'm playing the list now and ... yeah, that's Sylar (as you write him - wouldn't work at all for various other folk's characterizations of him but I really like your characterization of him, so that's all good).
