It is an extremely ambitious project that could turn French television upside down. As a matter of fact, billionaire Xavier Niel wants to create a new channel called SIX, which he plans to install on DTT’s 6th channel instead of M6. And the good news for France’s eighth fortune is that NJJ Project 5523, a subsidiary of the personal holding company that manages the SIX file, has signed a historic deal with the National Phonographic Broadcasting Syndicate SNEP. “The SIX project aims to bring to the public the richness and diversity of French music production as a whole, from very small labels to large corporations”refers to the association that manages the certifications of albums in France in a press release. Project run by Niel “clearly outperforms announcements made by its direct competitor” especially thanks “Best showing of music during prime time and on news programs”, but also with desire “balanced representation of female and male artists making room for young talents across all musical genres”. “SNEP music producers have informed Arcom that they fully support the SIX project proposed by NJJ, which suggests the possibility of a return to the spirit of the 1986 law and respectful dialogue”terminates the union.
For the first time since 1987, TF1 and M6, whose operating licenses expire on May 5, are forced to apply to the Audiovisual and Digital Communications Regulatory Authority, Arcom, to maintain their frequency. But facing M6, there is a major obstacle in the person of Xavier Niel, France’s eighth fortune, who wants to acquire channel 6 for his channel of the same name (SIX). On February 15, he presented his project, which was carried out by the company NJJ Project 5523, a subsidiary of his personal holding company. “This ambitious project can only be developed at the first” Channels of TNT channels, Niel discussed in a press release: Capital city resounded. The billionaire can also return to his country better life at the SIX, which was stopped at France Télévisions last November. However, according to Philippe Bailly, president and co-founder of NPA Conseil, a media specialist, this project for a new channel is far from over. “There isn’t a channel the size of a large DTT channel installed in two months, it’s still too complicated”He explained it in the columns of Capital.
