MTV Music (Australian and New Zealand TV channel)

MTV Music was a 24-hour Australian and New Zealand subscription music channel which first launched on 3 December 2013.

History
On 29 October 2013, MTV announced they had been working with Foxtel since early 2013 to offer more diversity on the Foxtel platform, as their two current music dedicated channels – MTV Classic and MTV Hits – fought for the same audience as Foxtel Networks channels MAX and [V] Hits respectively. As such, it was decided that MTV Classic and MTV Hits would cease broadcasting on the Foxtel platform to be replaced by two new MTV channels. The channel to replace MTV Hits was MTV Music, the same name of the number one UK music channel, which will feature pop, rock, urban and alternative music.

On 1 January 2014, MTV Music launched on Australian IPTV provider FetchTV.

On 1 December 2015, a localized version of MTV Music launched in New Zealand on Sky Television, replacing both MTV Classic and MTV Hits.

On 30 November 2016, MTV Music moved from channel 808 to 803 on the Foxtel platform.

On 15 February 2018, MTV Music was made available in HD for Fetch TV customers.

On 1 July 2020, the channel rebranded back to MTV Hits, as part of a wider deal between Foxtel and ViacomCBS.

MTV Hits was broadcast on Foxtel channel 801, taking the slot of the former Channel [V], until its closure.

Programs
They are automated blocks of hit music videos at all. And similar to MTV Dance, MTV Music only broadcasts three 5-minute commercial breaks each hour.
