Viacom18 to launch Hindi music channel MTV Beats

[iphifi]

Ya, may be you are right bro. Article seems to be bit confusing. Let's see. I personally like Mtv Indies channel and would be great if ADTV could add the HD version of it.

Even I wish MTV Indies continue. Used to watch it a lot when it was initially launched.

Can someone explain me these confusing lines:

"We will now be offering 3 differentiated experiences from brand MTV – while the flagship channel will be focused on youth and branded content and MTV Indies will continue to cater to the indie subculture, now, on the digital platform; MTV Beats, our first 24X7 Hindi music channel, will replace MTV Indies on air,"

==========

Bro, seems like Indies will continue only on digital platform and Beats will replace it on air, i.e. cable & dth. Will have to wait for actual thing to know.

RIP @pepsimtvindies . It's fitting that your obituary was hidden under the launch of a new Bollywood channel.

Indies is dead. Long live Indies.

This channel was like a baby of mine - so can't say it doesn't hurt.
