CRTC Denies Majority of CTV's Request for MuchMusic Licence Amendments

The CRTC turned down most, but not all, of CTV's requests to amend the conditions of licence relating to MuchMusic's nature of service.

The English-language specialty service will be able to draw programming from some additional categories and can adopt an 18-hour broadcast day, the Commission's decision reads.

CTV applied in March for amendments that it said would permit MuchMusic to "adapt to the business realities of audience fragmentation and changing technologies by providing programming that is relevant to the service's core audience of young adult viewers".
