"MuchMusic", "MuchPresents" boSovbe''a'? "TV show" 'oH "MuchMusic"'e',
loQ "MTV" rur. "MuchMusic" 'ay' 'oH "MuchPresents"'e'.
<much> "present" (verb)
<much> "music" (i.e. to perform music, verb)
pIH, qar'a'? [I had my suspicions about MuchPresents/
Much Presentation, but the whole section about how <much> means
to "present music" in KGT clinched it for me. Does *no one*
watch MuchMusic except for me? Ah, so you're all MTV fans.]
