Dish Network IMF

IS it just my TVs or is IMF gone from DIsh Network? Is so that's sucks cause it was our only International Music Feed. Now we just have FCUse and Mtv. They don't play nearly as many international artists.
Working up a purple sweat.

it is gone and i miss it.....

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The International Music Feed was a music channel that played music from around the world. It was the only channel in the US that combined music from American artists with music from other countries across the globe. IMF had a unique format of playing music videos almost exclusively which was in direct contrast to so-called music channels that dedicate very little programming time to actual music videos such as MTV, VH1, and FUSE. With IMF leaving the air on January 9th, cable and satellite lose one of the only (if not the only) 24-hr channels dedicated to music videos including hip/hop, pop, indie-rock, punk and many other types of artists from around the globe.

It was announced January 7, 2008, that the station would be going off the air. January 9th is the end of the station's run, as Ovation TV has purchased the channel and will replace it with Ovation TV [1]
