/Why/ is it that all the good music is on TV late at night?

You forgot the inside jokes, death threats, affectionate yet laughable nicknames. But yeah, "PLZAIR!FUSEROXORS!" and it's ilk depress me. I'd say it's the bad grammar and spelling, but then again I'm almost sure I've misspelled something, here.

The only music channel I have is 'The Hits'.
Feckin' terrestrial digital.

In Australia we've got a great late-night music show on free-to-air called "Rage". It runs on the weekend and goes pretty much all night - from midnight (ish) to around 9:00 the next morning. On Fridays it's just new releases and then the top 50, but on Saturday nights they get in a band that's touring the country at the moment - either a local band or an international one - and that band gets to guest-programme the show for the night, so they play all of their favourite songs and/or videos, and then at the end all of that band's videos get played. It's a pretty cool idea, and the show has a huge catalogue of videos. "The Majesty of Rock" by Spinal Tap pops up with pleasing regularity!
Because it's on the national (public) broadcaster, it's also completely ad-free.

You guys can whine all you want but at least you HAVE music channels. Muchmusic and mtv2 or whatever playing good songs late at night is better than no songs on tv ever. Yes. I'm bitter and poor.

3) MuchMore still had its hardon for Sloan after Action Pact's release; remember "Rest Of My Life?" They try not to.

I'm talking about when they were playing nothing but "If It Feels Good, Do It", "Everything You've Done Wrong", and "The Other Man. Then they would follow it up with around 15 minutes of the Rheostatics, which made me happy.
Then came the Nickleback.
And Celine Dion.
And all the other Canadian music that makes my ears bleed.

You aren't missing much. Most of these channels are pulling an MTV and playing more TV shows than music nowadays.
