MTV, one of the world most famous brand names in the entertainment industry, came to life as early as in 1977. Originally launched in 1981 as a music video channel, it has undergone numerous changes since its inception. It has become a worldwide phenomenon shaping music tastes of millions of people around the world.

The list of names from the music industry that performed or were aired by MTV is stunningly impressive. In its 1980’s heyday , MTV hosted such artists as David Bowie, Dire Straits (whose 1985 song and video "Money for Nothing" both referenced MTV and also included the slogan "I want my MTV" in its lyrics), Journey, Rush, Linda Ronstadt, Genesis, Billy Squier, Aerosmith, The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, The Moody Blues, John Mellencamp, Daryl Hall & John Oates, Billy Joel, Robert Palmer, Rod Stewart, The Who, Peter Gabriel, and ZZ Top; newly solo acts such as Robert Plant, Phil Collins, Paul McCartney, David Lee Roth, and Pete Townshend; supergroup acts such as Asia, The Power Station, Yes, The Firm, and Traveling Wilburys, as well as forgotten acts such as Michael Stanley Band, Shoes, Blotto, Ph.D., Rockpile, Bootcamp, Silicon Teens and Taxxi. The hard rock band Kiss publicly appeared without their trademark makeup for the first time on MTV in 1983. Some of the MTV Unplugged concerts have become classics and found their way into the annals of the music history.

In recent years, the network significantly changed its focus on music in favor of original reality programming targeting teenagers and young adults. MTV has also spawned numerous sister channels in the U.S. and affiliated channels internationally, some of which have gone independent.

MTV has localized versions of their website, but no one has access to the same amount of content as the Americans. That is why the US version of MTV is the most popular and has the widest choice of shows. Obviously, American version of MTV is geo-restricted and can only be watched within the US territories.

How to watch US version of MTV with Smart DNS

In order to access the US version of MTV, you need to make your IP appear as if coming from the US.

Smart DNS is a solution that redirects the part of your traffic that is responsible for your location via a dedicated US-based server. Your original IP remains the same so you don’t need to worry about accessing your local websites.
