4MUSIC: Officially the best!

Rory Kinsella   20 August 2008, 4:29 PM

The channel, which launched last Friday, blew all the competition out of the water!

The rebranded music channel, which combines the unique heritage of Channel 4's music output and the strong performance of The Hits, opened with Davina McCall and Steve Jones presenting Davina & Steve's 20 Big Ones, followed by the world premiere of Kylie Minogue's recent live extravaganza from the O2 Arena.

By far the most popular music channel on Friday evening, 4Music built on this success on Saturday with exclusive live coverage of the 2008 V Festival.

Neil McCallum, Channel 4's Head of Music, said: "We're delighted with the response to the launch of 4Music. Over three days we have managed to successfully showcase an incredible range of live performances from some of the world's leading acts and we're thrilled viewers have responded so positively."

Get watching - everyone else is!
