And yet they gave the video away for free to MTV, a company owned by the conglomerate Viacom who honestly could afford to pay to license that content. But no, free! To add salt to the wound MTV doesn’t pay performance royalties to the artists either.
This doesn't make much sense to me. MTV isn't a music distribution service, it's an advertising channel. They promote your music to millions of viewers for free (well, to you - the viewers pay). You want them to pay you? That's like expecting Google to pay you to show your ads.

If you don't want their services, that's fine.
