MTV Networks International has announced plans to launch an HD channel dedicated to music and kids programming.

Launching at 12pm CET on September 15, 'MTVNHD' will initially be available in Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Poland and Sweden. The channel will be rolled out to other territories - including the UK, France, Germany, Mexico, Brazil and Spain - by the end of the year.

The 24-hour service will include a mixture of original and acquired shows, including a daily chart countdown programme, an extreme sports series and a weekly show drawing content from the MTV archives. Featured live concerts include Matchbox Twenty, Nickelback and Meatloaf.

Sister channel Nickelodeon will also have a branded presence on the service, with programmes such as SpongeBob SquarePants, Jimmy Neutron and Mr. Meaty.

MTVNHD will be operated from MTV's Warsaw office.

I'm guessing that will be 3 Bats Live?
I'd love a HD quality copy of MSO though, have always thought the DVD picture quality is a little bit grainy.

when it says from the MTV Archives - what concerts with Meat Loaf do they have? They might decide to replay the New York show 1995, the history of Meat.... who knows... shame, to be able to watch it you have to go out and buy a £100 box then extra subscrition on I have now....

Is it really worth getting HD SKy??

[RadioMaster]

youd also have to get an HD compatible TV ;)

I'd recommend getting a PS3 instead if you want to fork out several hundred quid and already have an HD tv. It's more fun and upscales your existing DVDs tremendously well. + Blue Rays sound absolutely fantastic (music seems to be much clearer than normal dvds + lots of bass). If there's ever a Meat Loaf Blu Ray release you'd be ready for that. Doubt HD Tv would really be just AS good as Blu Ray.

But then I don't watch much tv (ie what's broadcasted), so that's my preference.

Oh we have a large HD LCD TV. But same here Andrew. I hardly watch tv, well saying that I hardly watch it during the day and I love my Eastenders at night ..................... (sorry guys, I'm a East End Fan) :lol:

Honestly watching 3 Bats on the PS3 with HD Tv a few weeks back felt like it was proper HD, no joke.

I don't have HD TV.. :(

And don't have money to buy one.. They don't show anything about Meat here in Finland and this would be nice chance to see but this HD is a big problem.. :evil:
