**Closing**
Support authors you love.. But abolish the strangle hold of DRM and licensing that kills ownership, seek to squash abuse of the DMCA, move to limit copyright terms and above all aim to ensure Alexandria doesn’t burn twice.

Liked on YouTube: HBO Video Jukebox with bumpers and commercials | 1982
Video Jukebox was an American television program which aired from 1981 to 1986 on HBO. It was a monthly series that showcased music videos from the popular recording artists of the time such as Duran Duran, Michael Jackson, Prince, Culture Club, Linda Ronstadt, David Bowie, Bow Wow Wow, Kim Wilde, Hall & Oates, Madonna, Blondie, Rush, and The Human League. A typical episode of Video Jukebox consisted of seven or eight music videos and lasted roughly 30 minutes, and the lineup changed in the middle of each month.
During the late 1970s (and before the MTV network debuted), HBO was already airing one or two music videos (or “promotional clips” as they were known at the time) as filler in between their feature films and other series. These short clips also carried the Video Jukebox moniker. When Video Jukebox premiered as a half-hour series in December 1981, HBO was reaching more households than MTV (which had been launched only four months earlier), so for about a year until MTV caught up to HBO’s subscriber count, a video that aired on Video Jukebox may have received more exposure there than it would on MTV.

Kudos to @cappy_1717 for the gorgeous Abyssal Visitor ! Love the orange color and whirlpool chest tampo, got a deep sea diver glyos build that really grooves for me. Not shown is the equally sharp glow in the dark and purple builds of the same @nistuff sculpt!
Outstanding work by both artists on this.
