I'm kinda surprised that music videos are still made - kinda thought the MTV generation was over, considering the channel doesn't play music videos anymore.

Music videos existed before and outside of MTV. That was just one cable station that established itself with the purpose of showing nothing else (and quickly gave up.) MTV was pop music only, too. Country has had multiple video channels for decades now. And that's just on legacy television networks which are horrible for that type of programming. On demand systems like YouTube are far better.
Vevo has been the modern era's MTV nearly as long as MTV was playing videos. MTV is already mostly an "also mention" in the history of music video services. If it was so prominent so early, it would have long ago been forgotten.

I don't think they're made with the same importance as back then. MTV was definitely revolutionary. You don't seem to get the big, famous, expensive videos that I still remember from my youth. Like Thriller, Sledgehammer, Money For Nothing, A-Ha's Take On Me, These videos had a big impact on my life.
Now videos are famous for some slimy sleazeball persuading Miley Cryus to get her kit off, and that's about it.
I still watch videos on YouTube though.

You don't get the big music of the 70s and 80s anymore either. @art_of_shred and I were discussing this a few months ago. The era of the giant artists like The Rolling Stones, Beatles, Michael Jackson, Journey, etc., etc. is over. The most iconic music of the rock and pop eras was made towards the beginning of both (same could be said for country in the 1990s) and the big, massive music videos were tied to them.

I wouldn't say over. Adele, Eminem, Nora Jones, Taylor Swift, Linkin Park, Britney Spears, Coldplay. All massive and all relatively recent (this century, anyway).
Maybe you're just getting old, Scott?

Linkin Park goes back to the mid 90s, although their first album wasn't til late 2000. Eminem goes back a ways too...

Am I the only one who thinks that it's just totally awesome that Steve Martin plays the BANJO?!

So you want to put album sales and concert ticket sales head to head between Coldplay and Journey? Good luck with that one. I think maybe you're too young to remember what music used to be like and the cultural impact it had. Sorry, but those days are long gone. Welcome to the digital age. No one is wearing Coldplay concert tee's.
