Well for those of you who have never seen it, MTV2 is basically what MTV used to be. It plays non stop music 24 hours a day. Unlike actual MTV which does not really seem to play music anymore for some reason. So in recent years we have been given MTV base, MTV Hits, MTV Dance, MTV +1 and then of course MTV2. Out of all the MTV ...  Read the complete review

MTV2 is perfect for you if you love alternative and indie music, but if you dont fit into this genre, then im afraid this might not be for you. I myself, being a indie fan, absolutely love this channel and the music it plays. Apart from playing great music videos, it has short hourly countdowns of certain charts, but this way you ...  Read the complete review

Very Annoying - Advantages: user interaction - Disadvantages: ADVERTS GalorE!, To many poorly constructed events, little music actually shown

I'm a big fan of alternative music, not the screaming world of Kerrang (although I often appreciate that too) but a mixture of soft Coldplay and Feeder, some punk such as Something Corporate and Blink 182 and the heavier nu metal stuff such as Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit. So Naturally MTV2 appeals to me far more than the ...  Read the complete review

About three years ago, approximately, I had got onto the Sky Digital bandwagon, and quickly afterwards I found M2, a sister channel to MTV that seemd to be the alternative to MTV. It's unusual manner of video broadcasting, which allowed viewers, as well as musicians to choose their own music videos, and it's avaunt-garde style ...  Read the complete review

If you subscribe to Sky Digital you'll no doubt be aware that the package comes with an abundance of music channels. Most of them cater towards the mainstream with the pathetic likes of Gareth Gates murdering classic elvis songs while the Cheeky Girls demand you touch their bum because "it is life!". Thankfully there is ...  Read the complete review

Having been ill off school for a few days, i have had alot more than enough time to absorb myself in the musical schemes of MTV2. Apparently the Black Sheep of Music channels, and what a good job it does, but has it rightfully earnt that name? The sole difference between MTV and MTV2 is that a vast majority of the people who ...  Read the complete review

From the very first day of Music Television, right up to the current day we have seen the channel expand substancially into somewhat of a series of channels. Nowadays we have MTV, MTV 2 Dance, Rap, Base, MTV Hits and I'm sure there are more. But the one which I most frequently view is MTV 2, the rock channel. It shows rock, ...  Read the complete review

On sky digital there are about 10 or 11 music channels and only 2 of them are really alternative MTV2 and Kerrang, and possibly Q. But the channel i personally prefer is MTV2 as it plays a nice range of nu-metal, punk, indie and rock 'n' roll. This channel is on 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. There are many features ...  Read the complete review

If Britney leaves you cold, Atomic Kitten make you want to puke, and you just feel like crying everytime one of the Pop Idols is on the radio, this is probably a channel you'll be interested in. 446 on Sky Digital, and also available on digital cable, MTV2 showcases music from the alternative genre, music that wouldn't ...  Read the complete review

Now then, MTV 2 well i can safely say this is the best music channel arounf, for me and alot of people i know anyway. It is a cahnnel which firmly concentrates on rock and alternative. Which is a nice thing, given the number of variations of rock out there. This mans that you don't just get the same old crappy pop music that the ...  Read the complete review

I was really excited when I got digital TV because it had the alternative music channel MTV2. For you people who are not sure what alternative music is it is a mixture of punk, rock and metal. So when the Digital man had installed our digital the first thing I did was go to the music channel and put in our favourites. I ...  Read the complete review

MTV2 is well known as the channel whereupon, music is played that wouldnt be shown on the likes of MTV or The Box.....this seems pretty stupid to me. I mean most of the stuff they play is on all the other channels anyway, and they don't focus enough on the smaller band, just the big ones. They are to focused on what the trendies want ...  Read the complete review

If i had to watch any channel for many many hours, i would no doubt choose MTV2, which is currently channel 446 on Sky Digital. Compared to the other music channels that are available to me, i find that MTV2 is in another league. You've got the likes of MTV and MTV Extra, which are at least professionally put together with ...  Read the complete review

MTV. Those 3-letters are enough to strike fear in to the hearts of any music lover. But when reviewing the MTV2 network, you have to think slightly differently. With MTV, the basis is in pop. And pretty much only pop. But, if like me, you don't like pop, you could replace the word pop with crap. So much so, that I believe ...  Read the complete review

Nowadays MTV has loads of add on channels. From the original MTV we have MTV Base, a rather poor channel for those of us who like hip-hop, MTV Hits - showing...well hits, MTV Dance for Dance music and then theres MTV 2 showing the best alternative music (Why is it called Alternative - Alternative to what? I'd have called it ...  Read the complete review

Ever since i first got Sky Digital i have been watching MTV2. It has the sort of music on it that makes it deserve the title, 'alternative music television'. MTV2 plays the music that other channels are scared to play. From KoRn to Pantera, to 28 Days, to the Sex Pistols, it is all there to be chosen. Some of the best ...  Read the complete review

I have had Sky Digital for over a year now and I have been watching MTV2 from day one having shunned the teenybopper world of MTV and Smash Hits Tv.The channel tries to cater for alternative, metal, punk and indie tastes. MTV2 attempts to offer alternative music which in other words means anything from Soulfly, Korn,Marilyn Manson, ...  Read the complete review

Recently, we finally got MTV2 on our cable system in this area. We previously had MTV (which plays almost no videos) and MTVX (which plays almost nothing but rock videos). But MTV2 is very different from those other two MTV networks. MTV2 plays videos, and lots of them, and they aren't restricted to any one particular genre ...  Read the complete review
