This is exactly it. With music channels not really being about music anymore, why would a record lable dump a large sum of money into the production of a video no one's going to see? The incentive for making a kick-ass video was that it would air on MTV constantly. Nowadays, that's certainly not the case. You have to search YouTube for music videos now and that's not worth the huge production of something like "My Sacrifice."
