Music Choice Europe work in partnership with cable and satellite broadcasters across Europe and Asia, including amongst others Sky, Unitymedia, Premiere, Kabel Deutschland, Telenet and Canal Digital.

Back in 1993 Music Choice Europe began establishing benchmark rates for digital music services and in many ways set standards for today’s digital music broadcast industry. All Music Choice products are fully rights cleared. In addition, technology is at the very heart of the company. The entire broadcast infrastructure is based on development partners HP and Microsoft and enables tailor made technical solutions to individual platform needs.

In 2007, Music Choice Europe acquired Xtra Music Limited, the previous European distributor of DMX’s digital audio channels. The purchase brought Music Choice’s unrivalled breadth of music channels into four million additional homes and extended coverage to several European countries including Austria, France, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Ukraine and Poland.

For the past 15 years, Music Choice Europe has been at the forefront of digital music broadcasting, providing high quality, non- stop music channels such as Total Hits, Classical Greats, Freedom, Hip Hop and Revival to name a few. Programmed by an award winning team of music programmers, all channels are tailored to play the biggest and best songs available and many are localized to specific regions.

Boasting vast experience in a portfolio of solutions for any platform, Music Choice Europe offers flexibility with digital TV audio services on satellite, cable, IPTV and broadband, plus new opportunities with music video on demand.
