EspañolTHE TUBE MUSIC NETWORK
(Redirected from The Tube (TV channel))
'The Tube Music Network' is a music video network carried on select digital television subchannels and digital cable systems. The network's president and founder is Les Garland, a veteran of MTV and VH1. The Tube is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Tube Media Corp. (OTCBB: TUBM) which was founded by David Levy in 2003, and is independent from any major media company.
The Tube airs classic and modern music videos in a format similar to the original format of Music Television (MTV) and Video Hits One (VH1). There are no reality shows, award shows, or game shows on the network, as they plan on having nothing more than music programming on their lineup. The network does show occasional commercials and PSAs and also three hours of mandated E/I programming on Saturday mornings.
Currently, it is available mostly in markets in which Raycom Media operates stations. According to a March 2006 article in The New York Times, Tribune Broadcasting has announced that it will start multicasting The Tube on its DTV channels in summer 2006. [1] However, as of Mid-April 2006, it had already begun transmission on digital television in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Philadelphia. The network also broadcasts on WLVI in Boston, which was purchased from Tribune by Sunbeam Television in late December 2006.
On March 23, 2006, Sinclair Broadcasting announced they would start multicasting The Tube on many of their outlets in the summer of 2006 as well. [2]. That relationship stopped temporarily on January 1, 2007, in a dispute involving FCC requirements for digital subchannels. The FCC has ruled that in addition to the main analog channels, each digital subchannel must also run the government mandated 3 hours of E/I programming a week, showing episodes of ''Wildlife Jams'', and also be able to broadcast any alerts from the Emergency Alert System.
