Many of my friends hear tracks like Heaven and Rapture on the radio and think the world of them. I then play a few top tracks like For an Angel, Silence, etc etc and they say "that's ooookkkkk I guess". They figure it's on the radio because it's good. I'm not so much worried about Canada but more about the US and MTV. I think it's fine having a channel that's not included in the reagular cable package(BPMTV) compared to MTV where everyone has that channel. I like BPMTV because they do play a lot of chessy tunes but they also play some nice quality one's. I can just see loads of young kids listening to trance because it's "cool", almost like it is now with rap/hip hop.

Have you guys ever thought about the long-term concequences If MTV or VH1 or Much started playing Trance? forget about the "end of the genre" you and I know that Trance music will never die in the hearts of REAL fans like us.

The main problem i am worried about is the commercialization of the music. People who are gonna watch the show, will start liking it, more and more people will start listening to it, leading the Dj's we know to produce more commercial trance just to satisfy the new fans. If this happens, the underground side of it will get smaller and the Dj's will soon catch on that commercial Trance sells more, so they will stop producing the real stuff that we listen to.

The dissadvantages out-weight the advantages IMO.

I say that ..: who cares about all the concequences that will come from this... they won't care about Canada... ppl here listen to rap crap... if a person listens to rap ... they will not.. 100% listen to trance... therefore i think they should bring TMF or at least put some trance videos on that crappy Much Music... and CUT ELECTRIC CIRCUS!!!
