  MTV Jams - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Like its "sister stations," VH1 Classic, VH1 Soul, VH1 Country, MTV Hits, VH1 Mega Hits, and previously MTVX, MTV Jams is available exclusively on digital cable packages or satellite TV providers, such as DirecTV.
The replacement of MTVX with MTV Jams was decried by many rock music fans.
For a while, MTV Jams' playlist was becoming more predictable and less random than it originally was at its inception; the new videos that were in heavy rotation were sometimes spun once an hour or once every two hours.

 MTVX Petition
I believe that this is a disgrace that MTV took away one of their only channels devoted to rock, and instead, replaced it with MTVJams (which is an R&B/rap channel).
Therefore, MTVX should be brought back for all those who cherish rock 'n roll, whether it be classic, alternative, metal, and so on.
The MTVX Petition to MTV network was created by all those who are angered by the removal of MTVX and written by Colleen Claes.

 MTV Jams   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
MTV Jams is an American hip-hop/urban music video channel that debuted in mid-2002, replacing MTVX, to the dismay of many rock music fans.
MTV's explanation for doing this was that more of the American population would prefer to see hip-hop and R&B; music videos, they claimed, rather than the hard rock videos which MTVX had been created to play.
Like VH1 Classic, VH1 Soul, VH1 Country, MTV Hits, VH1 Mega Hits, and previously MTVX, MTV Jams is available exclusively on digital cable packages or satellite TV providers, such as DirecTV.

 Musician Forums - An outrage
I recently turned on my T.V. to channel 309 and then I saw MTV Jams which is a rap channel which would be alright if they wouldn't have taken MTVX away completely and to top it all off they added another channel MTV Hits which is 70% rap anyway and the other 30% is pop.
MTVx still only plays the pop rock that u would hear on a local radio station.
MTVx refused to play The Murderers by SFU because it is "Too Extreme." Start Taking some ****in chances, MTV!!

 I heard a knock and the door was ajar and I opened there's no one at all.
MTVX was a 24 hour, commercial free, dj free, hard rock and roll video station.
What I propose is for each of you to help me in getting MTVX back on the air.
If we hard rock loyalists stick together on this one, it will help show MTV that their is a demand for hard rock music, and that even though they turned their back on hard rock music back in 1991, we loyal fans have not.

Although the truth is that out of the 800 or so channels that I now get, there's still nothing good on, one of the nice things was a channel called MTVX.
MTVX was an MTV channel that played nothing but rock videoes 24 hours a day.
This is a refreshing change from MTV and MTV2, which pretty much play nothing but current one-hit-blunders, rap and R&B. As of May 1, MTVX has changed format.

 DVD Talk Forum - MTVx is gone!
I've noticed over the past year that MTV has been playing more actual videos than they were a few years ago, but they are still just the same 10 videos from TRL over and over and over again.
I think MTVx was probably their last chance at keeping any viewers over the age of 15 on their network.
I haven't heard about it getting canceled, although anytime these days I have flipped to it it seems as if some other annoying MTV VJ was hosting or a celebrity guest instead of Carson Daly.

MTVX was really the only channel I watched, and I didn't really watch it.
But I did put it on MTVX and have that running in the background while I'm on the computer or playing bass or whatever.

 Brick Bath CD Reviews
Luckily, though, Brick Bath's thrashing grooves keep their music moving forward at all times.
It seems that Brick Bath will be lumped in with the aggro crowd, and that's unfortunate because, while Brick Bath share a lot in common with other purveyors in the aggro scene, they don't share much in common with what you might seen on MTVX as representing aggro.
While "I Won't Live The Lie" isn’t something that I'll be pulling out often to listen to, it will be one of the select few CDs that I put in the CD changer when the weight of the world and its worries bears down on me and I need a musical reason to fight back.

Yes, MTVX does usually play a good variety of new and old rock and metal.
