While waiting for Bud.TV to fix their age verifier, Vice Mag went and launched VBS.TV, a 24 hours, free of charge, age-restriction-free, broadband channel which also lets you do all the things bud.tv doesn’t: Send-to-a-friend, blog videos, and learn about hitchhiking with David Choe.

Building off the highly successful Vice Guide to Travel, VBS.TV is a model for reporting that may be raw, but is nothing but honest. In the words of Shane Smith, "As long as it’s real, it’s not bullsh*t." And who to trust to better explore the sub-cultural landscape than Vice magazine?

Watch the Mission Statement. This is going to be important.
