I watched MTV from the beginning for about the first year-and-a half, then stopped altogether. In my memory, many/most of the early videos were in no way jump-cut heavy. I think that what did happen is that there became a sameness to the videos. The desire to be new or "cutting edge" combined with the advent of digital editing technology to produce the current visual chaos. Youth has always had a short attention span, but technology now lets us take advantage of that.I think I remember reading in a book about Japanese manufacturing about the often needless technical complication of many Japanese goods. As the author put it, "Just because they can do it, doesn't mean they should," or some such.
