'''CMT Europe''' was a European television channel. It was a European version of [[CMT (American TV channel)|Country Music Television]].

The channel started in 1992. It was closed down on March 31, 1998 after substantial losses.<ref name=cmt2>{{cite news |url=https://www.variety.com/article/VR1117467333.html?categoryid=14&cs=1 |title=Gaylord shutters CMT Euro|last=Katz |first=Richard|publisher=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]|date=1998-02-03|accessdate=2016-01-26}}</ref>

On the [[Astra 19.2°E]] position, the channel switched satellite several times and was for a long time only available as a daytime service. It first launched in 1993 on transponder 41 on [[Astra 1C]] as part of the [[Sky Multichannels]] package, where it was broadcasting on [[Discovery Channel (UK TV channel)|The Discovery Channel]]'s daytime space and was on air from midnight until 4pm. It moved to transponder 24 on [[Astra 1B]] in September 1994, which allowed it to extend its broadcast hours until 7 p.m.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/dx/text/NEWS/SCDX/scdx2209.txt |format=TXT |title=MediaScan : SWEDEN CALLING DXERS : from Radio Sweden : Number 2209 |website=Ftp.funet.fi |date=1994-10-04 |accessdate=2016-01-26}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/dx/text/satellite/satnews/satnews.139-1 |format=TXT |title=SatNews : Issue 139 |website=Ftp.funet.fi |date=1994-09-05 |accessdate=2016-01-26}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/dx/text/satellite/telesatellit/ts940918.txt |format=TXT |title=European Satellite News : Number 17 |website=Ftp.funet.fi |date=1994-09-18 |accessdate=2016-01-26}}</ref> It finally ended up on transponder 51 in 1996 and was then allowed to go 24 hours on Astra.

For cable networks, a 24-hour feed of CMT Europe was maintained on [[Intelsat]] 27.5 degrees west. It was available in several European countries, for example in Sweden.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.regeringen.se/content/1/c4/09/83/fa466ef1.pdf|title=Statens offentliga utredningar 1997:68 sou 1997 68|publisher=Kulturdepartementet|page=29|access-date=2009-10-26|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110613031532/http://www.regeringen.se/content/1/c4/09/83/fa466ef1.pdf#|archive-date=2011-06-13|url-status=dead|df=}}</ref> It was carried as part of the Scandinavian channel [[Sky Entertainment]] when it launched in September 1997. In the UK, it was available 24 hours a day on cable. However, a number of cable companies dropped CMT in autumn 1996, thereby massively reducing the potential audience for the channel. For example, Bell Cablemedia (later [[Cable & Wireless Worldwide|Cable & Wireless]] and then [[NTL Incorporated|ntl]]) replaced CMT with [[The Box (UK TV channel)|The Box]] at the start of September 1996.

'''VTM''' or '''Vlaamse Televisie Maatschappij''' ([[English language|English]]: ''Flemish Television Company'') is the main commercial television station in [[Flanders]] (the Dutch-speaking northern region of [[Belgium]]) and forms part of a network of channels owned by [[DPG Media]] (formerly [[Medialaan]]).

It was launched on February 1, 1989 as the second commercial television channel in Belgium after the French-speaking [[RTL-TVI]], and quickly became the most popular TV channel in the Flemish part of Belgium. Early programming consisted of local versions of game shows like 'Rad Van Fortuin' ([[Wheel of Fortune (American game show)|Wheel of Fortune]]) or 'Waagstuk!' ([[Jeopardy!]]). The channel is also considered to have been instrumental in the rebirth of the local music industry as it was the first TV channel to promote local music through its primetime TV show 'Tien om te zien' (Ten to see), a weekly chart show with only local music productions.

The channel's focus on local music and local versions of international TV formats quickly allowed it to outperform public television in 1989 and the early 1990s. Average marketshare went up to over 40% in 1993. Currently VTM is still the Flemish commercial market leader and the 2nd biggest channel in Flanders. It can be received on cable, digital cable, IPTV in Flanders and Belgium and by satellite in Europe.

Parent company DPG Group also operates sister channels, including VTMKzoom (children's), as well as [[Q2 (TV channel)|Q2]] and [[Vitaya]]. Many programs originally aired on VTM may later rerun on these other channels. The broadcaster also owns two radio stations: [[Q-music (Belgium)|Q-music]] and [[JOEfm]]. It also formerly owned the now defunct [[Radio BemBem]]. In 2005 there were talks about MEDIALAAN, VTM's former owner, buying the Flemish part of [[Canal Plus]] from [[Telenet (Belgium)|Telenet]] but this fell through. In 2006 rumours spread that the [[RTL Group]] would buy 50% of MEDIALAAN, but VTM as well as RTL denied those plans.

In 2004, VTM lost its market dominance back to the public broadcaster [[Vlaamse Radio- en Televisieomroep|VRT]]'s flagship channel [[één]]. After its big rebrand in 2008 and the latest smaller rebrand in 2012, VTM regained strength with popular shows.

[[File:Logo TamTam.jpg|thumb|TamTam's logo (2000-2008)]]
For several years, VTM broadcast a kids' strand called '''TamTam''', competing with VRT's [[Ketnet]]. It featured programmes such as ''Teletubbies Everywhere'' and ''[[Miffy]]'' for little children and shows such as ''SimsalaGrimm'', ''Tweety and Sylvester Mysteries'', ''Schuif Af'' and ''Kids Top 20'' for older kids. During VTM's latest rebrand on 29 February 2008, the channel decided to do away with the TamTam brand. The programming block is now broadcast under the VTM brand.

==[[VTM Kids]]==
VTM Kids is the kids channel. It airs between 6am and 6pm. There is also a channel called VTM Kids+ which airs 24/24 and is a digital only channel. The brand has started on the first of October 2009.

==Teletext==
VTM started a teletext service on 1 February 1996 which was stopped on 1 November 2014. The page 888 is still available for subtitles.<ref>{{cite web|title=VTM|url=https://nieuws.vtm.be/cultuur-media/112906-vtm-stopt-vanaf-111-met-teletekst}}</ref>

'''TF1 Group''' ({{lang-fr|'''Groupe TF1'''}}) is a [[France|French]] media holding company. Its most well-known property is the broadcast network [[TF1]].

The group was formed after [[TF1]] was privatized in 1987. It is controlled with a 43% stake by [[Bouygues]], and is quoted on [[Euronext|Euronext Paris]].

==History==

In June 2009, TF1 Group agreed to buy the [[NT1 (television)|NT1]] channel from AB Groupe, as well as AB's 40% stake in TMC Monte Carlo (which would take TF1's total stake to 80%). The deal was cleared by France's [[Autorité de la concurrence|competition authority]] and subsequently by the [[Council of State (France)|Council of State]] in December 2010, dismissing an appeal by [[M6 (TV channel)|Métropole Télévision]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.lefigaro.fr/societes/2010/12/30/04015-20101230ARTFIG00548-tf1-autorisee-a-racheter-tmc-et-nt1.php|title=TF1 autorisée à racheter TMC et NT1|last=Le Galès|first=Yann|author2=Renault, Enguérand |date=30 December 2010|newspaper=[[Le Figaro]]|accessdate=4 May 2011|language=French}}</ref> As part of the same transaction the group raised its stake in WB Television to 49%.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.forbes.com/feeds/afx/2009/05/28/afx6474083.html|title=TF1 in exclusive talks to buy digital TV assets|last=Vidalon|first=Dominique|author2=Jacobs, Caroline |date=28 May 2009|agency=[[Reuters]]|work=[[Forbes]]|accessdate=2009-09-19}}</ref>

On 21 December 2012, [[Discovery Communications]] purchased a 20% stake in [[Eurosport]] from TF1 Group for €170m.<ref>{{cite press release |url=http://www.groupe-tf1.fr/presse/communiques/groupe/2012/tf1-discovery-communication-21-decembre-7741344-843.html |title=TF1 & Discovery Communications finalize agreement and move forward to build three-tier strategic alliance across Eurosport, four payTV channels and production |publisher=TF1 Group |date=2012-12-21 |accessdate=2013-01-23 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131022061855/http://www.groupe-tf1.fr/presse/communiques/groupe/2012/tf1-discovery-communication-21-decembre-7741344-843.html |archivedate=2013-10-22 }}</ref> Discovery has the option to increase its stake to 51% in 2014. Should Discovery exercise its option, TF1 Group would have the ability to then exercise a put option over the remaining 49% that would see Discovery take full control.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/media/2012/dec/13/discovery-sport-stake-eurosport|title=Discovery moves into sport with a 20% stake in Eurosport|work=The Guardian|date=13 December 2012}}</ref> On 22 July 2015 Discovery agreed to acquire TF1's remaining 49% stake in the venture.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2015/07/22/discovery-to-take-full-control-of-eurosport/|title=Discovery to take full control of Eurosport|author=|date=22 July 2015|website=broadbandtvnews.com|accessdate=6 April 2018}}</ref> Discovery also took a 20% share in TV Breizh, Histoire, Ushuaia TV and Stylia – for €14m, with the option of increasing its shareholding to 49% in each channel in 2014. Discovery and TF1's production arm will also work together on making programmes.

TF1 Group's Newen agree to acquired a majority stake in Reel One of Montreal in July 2019.

'''TF1 Group''' ({{lang-fr|'''Groupe TF1'''}}) is a [[France|French]] media holding company. Its most well-known property is the broadcast network [[TF1]].

The group was formed after [[TF1]] was privatized in 1987. It is controlled with a 43% stake by [[Bouygues]], and is quoted on [[Euronext|Euronext Paris]].

==History==

In June 2009, TF1 Group agreed to buy the [[NT1 (television)|NT1]] channel from AB Groupe, as well as AB's 40% stake in TMC Monte Carlo (which would take TF1's total stake to 80%). The deal was cleared by France's [[Autorité de la concurrence|competition authority]] and subsequently by the [[Council of State (France)|Council of State]] in December 2010, dismissing an appeal by [[M6 (TV channel)|Métropole Télévision]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.lefigaro.fr/societes/2010/12/30/04015-20101230ARTFIG00548-tf1-autorisee-a-racheter-tmc-et-nt1.php|title=TF1 autorisée à racheter TMC et NT1|last=Le Galès|first=Yann|author2=Renault, Enguérand |date=30 December 2010|newspaper=[[Le Figaro]]|accessdate=4 May 2011|language=French}}</ref> As part of the same transaction the group raised its stake in WB Television to 49%.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.forbes.com/feeds/afx/2009/05/28/afx6474083.html|title=TF1 in exclusive talks to buy digital TV assets|last=Vidalon|first=Dominique|author2=Jacobs, Caroline |date=28 May 2009|work=[[Reuters]]|publisher=[[Forbes]]|accessdate=2009-09-19}}</ref>
