- We've known that CHANNEL 4 is making a series of wide-ranging cuts in a bid to move to a digital footing, but for these channels, it seems that they have had their demise confirmed for good...

#4music #thebox #cancelled - Zábava
As much as it hurts me, I’m not shocked. I have always preferred traditional tv over streaming and now that shows and even whole channels are going off the air really shows how much times are changing. I’m only 26 but to see the downfall in traditional tv is very sad considering how long it has gone on for
Mmm i don’t want TV channels to disappear 😣
I was and still am a metalhead/rockhead. Kerrang was my go-to channel, I would always have it on as background music and from that I discovered such bands as Bullet for My Valentine, Billy Talent and The Hives and all of that was from Kerrang. Of course, I was very sad when Scuzz went off air, as again, I discovered bands such as Avenged Sevenfold and 30 Seconds to Mars. I love watching music videos, seeing how interesting they are and how creative the directors are. (Hello, The White Stripes' "Hardest Button to Button", directed by the legendary Michel Gondry).
I know it's all my nostalgia talking, thank you for everything Kerrang! For giving all of the goths/emos/punks/metalheads of my generation something to enjoy and act as a tastemaker for their music tastes.
Farewell The Box, 4Music, Kiss, Kerrang and Magic!
It feels like everything we enjoyed is gradually disappearing. I would say that's always been the nature of things, but, that's not true. My parents had three channels of telly, I had four, and we shared the same experiences with soaps, Saturday night entertainment, etc... we will soon have nothing to say to eachother.
I absolutely don't think this is the case, you're being a liiiiitle bit ridiculous here.
Saturday night entertainment: still exists
A small amount of main channels: still exists
Soaps: Still exists
I am really not sure what this post is supposed to be saying. Why don't you talk to your parents ABOUT the fact that things are changing? There's a topic for you :)
I used to watch ‘The Box’ religiously when I had Diamond Cable back in the 90s/Early 00s…Will be a shame to see it go.
The problem with music videos is standard video not H D. Channel 4 should sold the channel to another station.
The problem with channel 4 the on screen logos cause damage to TV over a period of time. They should remove the logo on screen could increase viewer and advertise revenue.
I live in a rural area and streaming is difficult with broadband speed less than 10mps being 1.5 miles from the cabinet.
Damn, that is quite a purge!
3:55 I don't know why, but the way you explained Channel 4 got me laughing. 😂🤣
TBH, I didn’t watch music channels for long. I only really watched Kerrang around 2006/07/08 time and when MySpace and CZcams started having music on them, I almost immediately forgot about music channels. If an average 16/17/18 year-old was abandoning music channels about 16-18 years ago, I dread to think just how low the viewing figures must be!
I consider this as a reflection of the current state of Traditional TV and not in a good way unfortunately. Imagine if 4Music kept going and it’s loyalship would only rise with people coming back to it for nostalgia. R.I.P to these channels.😔
They probably should have kept 4 music only and tried to improve it. Not sure how expensive it is for channel 4 to screen the music videos are the music right owners charging an excessive amount of money?
It's really sad to have to see those music channels be removed from the airwaves for good. 4Music/The Hits and VIVA were two of my big childhood sources of music TV, and it's a shame to see them no longer with me now.
And considering E4 Extra's programming, that's where all the reality and stuff like that got moved from 4Music following the reversal.
Just had a look through the programmes on Kerrang for the week and saw one called Kerrang TV Thnks Fr Th Mmrs which will be a retrospective programme I'll definitely watch that for old times sake
Nooooo these channels were my childhood! Especially 4music! 😭😭💔💔
RIP UK music channels.
MTV Music, MTV Hits, That's TV Network, MTV decades, Now network, Clubland & Chart Show Retro remain
Clubland babes!
@@NicolasPetrosLanningOmG
@@charlii_tvMMVI Yep BUT for how long is my question? ...seems more and more channels be they music, entertainment or news are all pulling out of sky, virgin freeview etc as time goes on to host their own pay per view steaming stuff ....that happend with the FX channel when disney bought it out and it all went on Disney + , samme with CCN news they pulled out of the tv channels to focus on again a subscription service of thier own to watch it! , i Dont mind streaming and i know it went big during Covid BUT to have so many subscriptions to all the diffrent ones at say £5 upwards a month no one can afford to keep that cost up especialy with the cost of living as it is at the moment ..thats why Disney + , Prime and Netflix saw a big drop off of subscribers after the pandemic no one could affor to pay the sub fees for all of them! Even ITV X you have to sub to to watch some shows same with ch 4 too!
I'm not a fan of streaming killing off traditional telly.
Me too
Same here, I’m Spartacus! ✊
I still watch traditional tv and barely use any streaming at all.
I'm a fan of streaming killing it. Streaming allows so many niche shows to get off the ground that traditional networks wouldn't and you can watch what you want,when you want
@@PelinalDidNothingWrong there is room for both.
There is so much stuff that is discovered purely because of channel flicking. Terrestrial and satellite is also still currently more reliable than streaming.
Gutted about Kerrang! It’s the channel I put on when I’ve got stuff to do cus I love my emo anthems on in the background
It's certainly the end of an era. I'm definitely gonna miss 4Music & Magic TV
Are you uploading the Shutdowns?
Silence, you content thief.
July. JULY!!! JULY!!!!!!
I am now depressed.😢
Hi Adam, I am starting to get worried for Freesat. It is co-owned by BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5, but it seems those four juggernauts of broadcasting are just leaving Freesat to ruin. It seems being on their EPG is very expensive compared to Sky. I am concerned. Not only have they soon no music channels, but they have just 2 movie channels, Film 4 and Talking Pictures TV. It is only going to get worse.
The other ITV channels will get a gradient logos on an exact date.
Yes channels such as CNN are big losses on Freesat. Talk TV isn’t great that they dropped all traditional tv avenues. It’s a pity the access charges to get on Freesat is so expensive, there is plenty of very low grade Sky channels with very low viewership which could gain an improved audience if they were listed on the Freesat EPG. Wonder will we see some more premium Sky channels such as Nick, MTV etc jumping on Freesat as Sky moves towards Sky Glass and an non satellite future. It’s also a pity that most Freesat boxes and TV’s have very difficult manual tuning menus making seeing non Freesat channels mostly impractical.
@@ntvalt4361shit grammar
We cannot let FreeSat shut down!!
@@NicolasPetrosLanningThe luscious gradients are:
ITV1 - gradient turquoise
ITV2 - gradient pink
ITV3 - gradient light purple
ITV4 - gradient green
ITVBe - gradient salmon orange
CITV - gradient yellow
That's is luscious gradients for all ITV logos and they will get a official date soon.
It breaks my heart to see that KerrangTV is closing down! Without kerrang, I wouldn't have found many bands in the rock and metal I enjoy as I have done. The Kerrang, Scuzz TV and MTV Rocks era on television will never be defeated. Who will fly the flag now for bands on TV?
Couldn't Channel 4 sell them to another company who might keep them open? A lot more to them than just showing back to back music video (that's all the That's channels do), there are music stars picking videos (eg Shaggy's 00's Hot Shots, Gabrielle's Feel Good 90s), chart rundowns such as charts of the year, themed shows all with one artist and so on, CZcams doesn't replace that. It's why the MTV Music channels are still quite good as well, you get the chart of the year etc.
You can understand it. For over 15 years now, you have been able to make your own personalised music video playlist, on this platform. Most of the music channels, are now nostalgia, rather than new music: Now That’s What I Call Music, and now the That’s TV network, have muscled in on this dwindling but saturated market, over the last 10-15 years.
Yes CZcams is a good alternative, but a video channel, when well curated, is just nice easy viewing. You don't always want to pick the songs. I like flicking them on late at night when I cba to get into something heavy like a drama. And these channels still have a monthly reach of 1 million+. I'm surprised Channel 4 hasn't seen fit to put these channels on their app. They could run them for next to nothing there and it might bring a little bit of extra traffic to the app for little effort.
Also worth noting that new channels from Now and That's TV are still launching.. so why are they able to make money out of music videos and Channel 4 think they can't
@@PopUnlimitedThats TV have filled the gap, of a series of local channel closures throughout the UK in recent years. These were the local channels the Coalition government introduced about a decade ago. In a way, they were a blank sheet, and music filled a lot of their early content. With a few Benny Hill and Kenny Everett repeats. Filling the gap of another fallen channel, Vintage TV. They themselves have expanded their platform. But it’s more repeats. They don’t do any original programming. C4 needs to make new programmes, its broadcast remit relies on this. And that is costly. All That’s TV need to do, is provide an occasional news service, they stick in ad breaks without presenters anyway. So you can see why C4 got rid of its music channels.
I think that a less obvious yet significant culprit for these channels closing is a shift in the pop music scene which has been going on for about the last twenty years. Where there were once a tight core of acts within a very controlled music industry, the field has opened massively now and it's much harder to create a please-all playlist. It's also why I think Top Of The Pops ended. It does all link in with how streaming has changed the landscape, but I do think that there are other factors such as the way that there's now over sixty years of back-catalogue material from the start of the pop music boom which is pulling people away from new music. People's relationship with music is changing in curious ways. The MTV age is certainly now a thing of the past.
Did wonder what was happening tbh. I did randomly had the box on tv on Saturday and they were using the old 90`s logo and playing older stuff from the 90`s/00`s.
I remember watching 4 music through Freeview, how am I ment to get nastalgia before shutdown??
4 Music has always been my favourite way to listen to music whenever I don’t have WiFi but now that it’s ending,I’m gutted. We will miss you 4 Music
RIP 2008-2024
These channels served their purpose but have ultimately become obsolete in an age where you can find basically any song of any genre online on CZcams,Spotify and other apps. They will be missed,but it's just another sign that the media landscape is rapidly different compared to twenty years ago. This seems like both a business decision and as I've said before,Channel 4 is doing a better job of remaining relevant than BBC or ITV!
no great loss to me. since MTV stopped being a music channel I've had no interest in these types of channels.
I mostly listen to 102.1 The Edge.
As a Virgin TV subscriber im realy getting fed up of them putting up the subsciption fee every 6 to 12 months and losing loads of channels , TCM, FX , CNN , NBC NOW and TALK TV news to name a few ( i know some of it is not virgins fault BUT...) to keep raising the subscription fee and replacing the lost channels with (well tbh a load of Tat streaming channels that are ALL more or less available on the Pluto tv channel on virgin tv anyhow ...i mean who wants to watch a streaming channel that just plays the american version of deal or no deal with loads of ad breaks I certainly dont! ) It is not on! and now we are going to lose the box, 4 music,magic, kiss and the Kerrang! channels too .....( again i know its not realy Virgins fault ...BUT they NEVER let you know these channels are going now they have replaced the old Tivo boxes with the V6 ones ..at least you used to get customer news on the tivo box and KNEW in advance when a channel was going or being added to the line up ( mostly going these days)....now its one day its ther next day its closed down! ..we have to pay extra for sky movies , sports etc while they are cutting the channels you get with your normal subscription !
Magic I will always associate with Christmas Music!
It played Band Aid 30 2014 more than the 1984 original lol
@@charlii_tvMMVI yeah too bad that abomination was more popular there!
I really hate streaming services.
Me too!
Me too
Same, it’s a bloody racket and everybody’s walked straight into the trap when we’ll be forced to take on multiple subscriptions just to see all the programmes we want to see .
Me too!
I do too! Many reasons are:
Prices may rise
They are not as user friendly as linear television
Password sharing may get cracked down
They’re also anti-consumer!
Kerrang got me into rock music so I’d be definitely tuning into the closer
After scuzz shutdown in 2018, I knew it was a matter of time for Kerrang TV will shutdown for good, music channels on TV are just simply an outdated way of consuming music, being a nu metal kid in the early 2000's, who watched Kerrang TV when it was in it's infancy, it became rubbish since the 2010's but it holds a special place in my heart and I also have special memories of the box in the late 90's when pop music was actually good,
RIP KERRANG TV, Thanks for the memories
Should I say, thnks fr th mmrs
4Music was programmed a bit like E4 Extra, eventually they just decided to launch E4 Extra and allow 4Music to be a music channel.
Music and it's consumption has generally changed over the past decades.
Technology and society has changed it's attitude with music since the mid 20th century. In used to be that playing a musical instrument was common. Buying sheet music and learning songs from movies and top pop songs used to be a popular past time. Music then became a lucrative industry than a talent. It was a way to appeal to the new consent of teenagers.
By the 1960s radio for listening to music rather than radio soaps and plays had become popular among teenagers. Teenagers with their disposable income would buy records of the latest music rather than waiting for them to be played on the radio.
In the 2000s music video channels had become popular because they were cheap to run. You pay a licence fee to show the videos which is a percentage of the income of the channel income but you don't need to create content. Some channels like MTV would make programmes like TRL which would bring in viewers and increase advertising which lead the main MTV to becoming an entertainment channel because they were paying for content so why should they pay a percentage of the channel income to the music industry if they weren't showing music videos.
Other channels would have bands and music artists choosing their favourite songs and showing the music videos and having chart countdowns with guests but these programmes stopped as did mainstream programmes like Top of the Pops and CD:UK. Since then the music industry moved in to concerts and merchandise.
MTV did exactly the same.
Cutting costs because unless wider audience.
Didn't really watch as much of their content. So I am not surprised anymore that those channels are closing down. I can see this happening a lot more now. Especially that we are in the digital age of streaming. Music
Loved The Box back in the day, used too watch it all the time when we first got cable in 1996 when it was the local version, Sad too see it go along with Kerrang, Kiss and Magic, good that The Box are paying a tribute by playing vids from the last 32 years, should bring back the calling too select videos just for fun. I do remember E4 Music was short lived think it was on from 6am till 2pm then E4 started, Think it came about not long before E4 went FTA.
These channels were always kind of specialist. Even before the days of streaming, they had to go against purchasable media and radio.sad as it is, Im just surprised they were not closed sooner.
Im more curious as to why theres so many shopping and religious channels and how the heck they stay on air.
Was a Kerrang kid back in the day. It is sad, but not too surprising. I still think there's some worth to TV but... CZcams and music streaming is just so much better a product. Seeing my favourite band's new songs/music videos and catching their YT Premiere is so exciting.
Luckily (or hopefully) it will still be on car radio
Channel 4
Since these channels are going away I’ll try record the shut down of 4music since I have a very good memory of it so ill share one story from 4music when I was channel flicking then I saw 4music so i decided to see what’s going on then they played a song that I know so I was dancing near 4am to some song on 4music then the song ended and 4music closed down for the night so yea rip 4music,box,kiss,magic and kerrang!
I very sad thats music channels is ended. I will never forget the "christmas seasson channels" from the box(Boxmas) and Magic tv. I loved it so much.
I dont know what watching from astra(28.2˚) satellite (as europe viewer).
RIP BoXmas 2019-2023
I grew up with 4Music and Kerrang! but of course any music consumption via the telly would inevitably become more limited. Things are much more user friendly & accessible nowadays so it is outdated in principle.. I find the variety a lot more narrow on pop TV/radio stations nowadays as opposed of "then" (of 15-20 years ago in my case) but that is what our mainstream has to offer. Even now I reckon I was quite a fortunate boy to access those channels on free telly from within a poorer working class household. So thanks for the memories eh? 🥂
I do think the time of the music channel that airs more modern music has had its day. however channels like the NOW/That's TV music channels I reckon will survive for as long as they can
These going away is not good for me I leave alot on when im doing stuff near by though other channels doing it still exist.
I Got cable Around 1998 when the Box was Still JukeBox with Music Selections screens in between videos used to spend Hours waiting for certain Tracks to be played just so I could get a certain Music Video onto VHS .For years Sun Rise by Rolf Harris was listed but I never once saw anyone pick it and the song that was way older than rest they had listed.
When I first read that news item, I fully expected an AMTV News video to cover it, thank you Adam for covering yet another awful news.......
I see at 10pm on the Box there’s a 2 hour show The Box Music TV you controlled
Literally just tuned into catch the last few minutes. There was a sign off from Abby McCarthy and they showed a slide that said ‘The Box 1992-2024’…at least they’re acknowledging it’s importance
To be honest those channels are well past their sell by date due to all the video on demand services available on-line.
They still could have used it online.
Imagine a the box streaming service where you could make your own music video playlists or play curated ones. Spotify does exist, but nothing really for music videos. YT music is a joke...
The war against linear TV. So shortsighted; once these channels are gone, they're gone. How does closing them down completely help their obsession with streaming?! I have always watched music channels, and I will mourn their loss. MTV has seemingly long since abandoned most music output (the '16 and pregnant' nonsense they fell into) and VEVO in its current form, which I watch through my Apple TV box, is a poor substitute (very limited catalogue). I was lucky to see a floor full of these music channels when I did some work for a broadcaster a few years ago, just an unattended collection of racks of hard drives and phone connections (text requests etc.), but there was nevertheless a 'buzz' amongst those tasked with scheduling the collections. In financial terms they were and are very cheap to run, yet seemingly in this new utterly soulless world of streaming, this is, apparently, the way forward. Stop the world, I want to get off, and shame on you Channel 4.
I think you should shift realities…it’s real but it won’t be scientifically proven, there are CIA files for evidence that exists
Oh dear 😢
One thing I’m confused by was the box originated from an on demand music network in the USA. Was it ever on demand in the UK?
I definitely remember it being on demand in the early 2000s.
It was. I remember seeing it late night on Sky analogue after Granada Plus closed down. They advertised the playlist with (I think) 3 digit codes and you'd occasionally see an overlay on the screen of someone entering a code, followed by "Thanx".
I thought 4Music died ages ago and was rebranded E4 Extra?
Even now last week, I had the box on in the background, and discovered new music I’ve never heard of before. Same way I did 20 years ago. So it’s not all just nostalgia based viewing. They are a great way for artists to be discovered, which is harder to do on CZcams due to algorithms, or showing you stuff you’ve previously watched. I’m sad about it, same way I was when the vault closed months back. They just needed streamlined maybe, just the one channel, an hour each of different genres, live sets, maybe even a half hour TRL style show. I dunno, I still miss CDUK amd TOTP
Sad times. 😔
Can’t wait for the end of this month
I enjoyed listening to these channels while in Roblox
Listen Adam, Ronan Keating is leaving Magic Radio Breakfast for sure
These are sad,Now I shift to E4 Extra 😢
I'm gonna miss these channels😢😢They were my childhood
Music Game TV people The Box 😢
I wonder what time they'll shut the channel down? Will it be at midnight, as soon as July 1st starts? or will it be at the end of July 1st, like 11:59PM?
Well it's said in the sign off message that is shutting down June 30th so I think it will be at midnight once July 1st starts
A sad time but seemingly inevitable that these channels would be coming up on the chopping block.
I remember The Box in the late 90s/early 00s when it was in its viewer request format. Whilst they picked the playlist, there was no content control so you'd frequently see popular music videos multiple times in a row. I stopped watching it regularly when it became a pre-programmed channel which is when these channels lost their USP in my opinion.
Emap who owned these stations originally have long gone, and so have the radio stations. It's time to let go.
R.I.P. Kerrang. Always remember them giving me my first taste of Slipknot
I grew up with the box and Kerrang
"Never go to KISS" - A host on Radio 1
they were still around?
Isn't kerrang going too
Can't be bothered to streaming, it's too much trouble.
littlebe is gone from itvbe ☹️☹️
Though That Probably Isnt Permanent
I hope it’s temporary…BOYCOTT ITV
I’m loosing 5 stations this month yet Sky stream isn’t going down yet they won’t replace the lost 5 channels
youtube is ok for watching on laptops like talk now
I like Kiss and 4 music alway got banggers on RIP
It’s sad
I've noticed Kiss on freeview TV not be on there past 1 or 2 months ago Channel 712 what I can remember. No warning or anything c ya and what a disappointment how not to watch the show anymore.
aren't they already dead?
E4 Extra just replaced 4 Music LOL!!!
I will miss 4music…
:(
It’s about time sky give the uk RTÉ television
Hollyoaks would do better with cutting episodes per week. Quality over quantity.

This whole video just feels like a reading off of the RXTV Info article with little to nothing else being added and no other sources being used for this news story. I have to say, I'm definitely not a fan of videos like these at all.
That's totally fair enough! Appreciate the feedback! These kinds of videos are easier to make and put out more frequently whilst I devote time to other, bigger videos or non-YT stuff. I get they won't be everyone's cup of tea though!
