MTV Dance is a digital television channel based in the United Kingdom. The channel is MTV UK's dedicated dance music channel with music videos and programming of underground and mainstream dance tracks. Its first long term, although erratically available competitor for the dance music television market in the UK & Ireland is Rapture TV. Since 2006, Flaunt became the main competitor (broadcasting Free to Air and in the aspect ratio 16:9 widescreen format). MTV Dance is also available in Ireland. On March 7th 2008, MTV Dance replaced the European MTV Base feed on Astra 1 19.2e and is therefore now available to many European countries. MTV Dance originally started out as a programming slot on the now defunct MTV Extra. It originally timeshared with Nick Jr. and therefore was only on air between 19:00 and 06:00. However, it has since gained its own channel and started broadcasting 24 hours from 13 August 2002.
