With Youtube, satellite radio, Itunesand sites like Limewire, Myspace and others have replaced it. Plus the fact that MTV does not bother to play music videos anymore and the music being played is not very popular anymore

Not at all, MTV is actually hurting music but it's ok..
Rock has a tendancy to shine when things are at their most pathetic which is what the mainstream and even alot of the rock genre itself is today.
Give it around 5 years and the entire music industry (especially the MTV/hip-hop) is NOT going to destroy itself but it will collapse temporarily at some point and the internet mediums like Youtube and Myspace etc... will be the place where everyone goes to find music, something that more or less is true today ... but I think will be the norm very very early in the next decade.
So no music doesn't need MTV at all, the people at MTV know how lame they've become and know what's coming for them in the upcoming years,but the western media never fails, you have to remember that, once internet bands start to break MTV will start getting them to sell out and once the amount of bands online get to huge for the big four to sign all at once and market.. MTV and the Big Four will simply start taking up a larger presense online, making 'MTV youtube streams' and lame sh!t like that. They'll still get ratings but not as much as they get today

Definately not BET VH1 and MTV are all owned by the same person. They even swap out shows sometimes. You can be watching Vh1 and the show Real World will be on. Nope no music. Well except for the hour or two they play at 6am.

MTV's time is over...they've abandoned music for reality shows...and worse, when they do play music, it's not much variety...too many hip-hop videos with talentless hacks.
Youtube is probably here to stay as MTV crumbles...but then again, will the quality of videos remain the same.

MTV in my opinion puts songs that people perfer, but those are only a few. For example Soulja Boy && RAP!
More rock please??
MTV repeats no one needs them!
They should really get off T.V.

With regards to music, i think that MTV has lost it's importance and relevance. And seeing as it doesn't seem to play music anymore, they should change it's name or at least drop the "M" from it.

Music doesn't need MTV, but they just need a place to put the crappy music.
The good rock music can be found on Fuse
The good light pop can be found on VH1
The good Rap/R&B can be found on the Internet
The good Pop.... well there is no good pop.
The good everything else can be found on IMF
