Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources.  The article notes: "DirecTV has greenlit its first original series, a weekly one-hour music show called "CD Us." Skein, to kick off Jan. 21 exclusively on DirecTV's channel 101 (and in high def on channel 401), will feature what the company calls a mix of music genres, including pop, indie, rock and urban. Performers signed up to tape their performances at the Tribune studios in Los Angeles a few days before the broadcast include the Goo Goo Dolls, Sean Paul, Leela James, Pretty Ricky, Ben Harper and David Gray. The series is based on the British program "CD UK," produced by BlazeTV, which will also produce the U.S. version under the aegis of Conor McAnally, executive producer and director of programs for Blaze TV."  The article notes: "A spinoff of a top-rated British program, “CD USA” will feature interviews, behind-the-scenes reports and performances by as many as seven bands per episode, including big-name acts such as the Goo Goo Dolls, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Linkin Park. ... “CD USA” and other new offerings in the coming months represent the first major consumer initiatives by DirecTV since Murdoch took control two years ago. ... Everyone agrees that scheduling as many as seven acts a week for “CD USA” will be a bear."  The article notes: "Las Vegas returns to the national New Year's Eve TV spotlight Sunday when the Fremont Street Experience serves as epicenter for "CD USA," a 4½-hour, six-band musical marathon airing live on DirecTV's Channel 101 at 8 p.m. (That's 11 p.m. for East Coast types.) The idea for the extended bash began when executive producer Conor McAnally pondered U.S. geography."  The article notes: "Satellite operator DirecTV has signed up for a US version of CD:UK, Broadcast said today. CD:USA will adopt a similar format, studio and graphics to its UK counterpart but will be backed by a higher budget." There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow CD USA to pass Notability, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".
