THE AMP UNPLUGGED
Sad to report that one of the better music TV channels, The Amp, has been scrapped by Chart Show TV and Sky, who have replaced its mix of old Stone Roses videos and... well, more old Stone Roses videos with a new channel called Bliss.
Bliss. As in blister, we presume. Superserving the Magic audience with non-stop Bryan Adams and Westlife style love-slush ballads.
The Amp's website (www.theamp.tv) currently says "The Amp... ...back soon", which offers a glimmer of hope, but if we had a pound for every channel website which threatened to return at some point we could offset the dotcom boom losses (there was a bloke from ITV News suggesting their axed service might be back as a broadband service at some point just this week).
Chart Show TV had taken over the day-to-day running of Sky's video channels; the Amp's two sister services, Scuzz and Flaunt, continue unmolested.
The Amp was never perfect, but at least it offered something a little different. It's back to VH2, we suppose...

Joe_Fox said:I remember when I lived in Leicester I could pick up East Midlands Today via the analogue ariel but it was always very fuzzy.
Can most of Leicester pick it up or is it one of the worst receptioned channel ever?
I used to get sick of Midlands Today (WHY isn't it called West Midlands today - twats) hearing Kay Alexander fook up the news even two minutes - reading age of an 8 year old - no that's not fair, 5 year old.
Also, the sports used to piss me off, Leicester beat Man U and it shows the score but no action and then about 5 minutes of action from the Bescot Stadium as Walsall draw 0-0. Absolute joke.
ARGH!
