From the Digital Box Set: This week, it's Part Two of "Marketing Rock 'n' Roll." As the 1980s unfold, technology changes rock 'n' roll marketing forever with the arrival of MTV. The launch of MTV is one of the great marketing stories of all time, and it almost went under before it began - but was saved by Mick Jagger and a one dollar bill.

From iTunes to YouTube to the invention of Apps - suddenly technology was the newest rock star.
