Has Reality Killed The Video Star On Satellite TV? ... Of course as an alternative to the old standbys there are popular music television channel options like BET, Juice TV, MuchMusic, and Music Choice. However, in order to make room for its tween-based lineup of regularly featured programming, MTV has expanded horizontally to make room for music channels like MTV2, MTV Adria, Arabia, Asia, Australia, Base, Base Africa, Brasil, Central, Chi, Dance, Desi, Tr3s, Europe, Hits, Hungary, India, Italia, Jams, Japan, K, Latin American, Pakistan, Philippines, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Spain, Turkey, and MTVU. For example, MTV Base covers digital music and entertainment including R&B, Hip-Hop, Soul and Urban, and broadcasts in MTV’s European network. Then there is MTV Tr3s, or MTV tres which provides viewers with bi-cultural entertainment, rooted in Latin American and American musical fusion, with pop, urban and rock music fused across cultures, languages, and lifestyles. More widely known in North America, is MTV Hits, which is intended to represent pre-reality-revolution MTV days. With limited commercials and lots of videos it intends to fill the video void. MTV Jams plays American hip-hop and urban music videos, MTV K is aimed at Korean Americans, and MTVU at college and university students. It seems like by dividing and conquering, MTV aims to please nearly every musical audience. It’s not that the video format has disappeared, it’s just been swept under a veritable stack of rugs where it must be sought out and purchased by satellite TV viewers. A similar approach has been taken by VH1 channels, splitting up into VH1 Classic, VH1 Country, VH1 Soul, VH1 Uno, and VH1 UK. For videos and concert classics, VH1 Classic is the place to head. Channels like VH1 Country and VH1 Soul are rather self-explanatory, featuring non-stop country music and R&B, funk, soul, and Motown music, respectively. VH1 Uno features Latin Pop, ballads, Tropical, Salsa & Merengue, and Urban Hip Hop artists, broadcast to an international audience, while VH1 UK, brought to us by MTV Networks Europe, is aimed at the 25-44 age bracket of viewers across the UK and parts of Europe...
Shah Rukh Khan - Why He's King Of Bollywood ... But Shah Rukh Khan's been the undisputed King of Bollywood for nearly twenty years and much of his appeal comes from his personal brand's USP of love and respect.
