Virgin 17 is a French music video and tv show television network owned by the MCM Group, a subsidiary of Lagardère Active. It is available through digital terrestrial television in France, "TNT".
The channel was created for the launch of TNT and modelled after MCM, another channel owned by Lagardère Active. It initially had the working title "iMCM", but before launch it was named after the radio station Europe 2, and was then renamed Virgin 17 in 1 January 2008 (along with the radio station which became Virgin Radio France)
The TV channel has been broadcast free to air via satellite Hotbird 8 (13°E) up to 2007-11-21. Now it's Viaccess encrypted and available to TPS subscribers(kingofsat.net change log, satscan.net).
