TheCoolTV is an American digital broadcast television network that is owned by Cool Music Network, LLC of Lawrence, Kansas. Launched in March 2009, the network's current program schedule consists of an all-music video lineup that can be customized to meet an affiliate's preference; it also broadcasts the minimum three hours of children's programming for their affiliates intended to meet E/I requirements set by the Federal Communications Commission. In addition to the network, Cool Music Network also distributes recorded music and performances through digital cable and satellite channels, and post-concert CDs at music venues.〔("Lawrence-based TheCoolTV might revive music video" ), from kansascity.com, 11/28/2011〕 ==Affiliates 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RabbitEars.Info )〕== Since the fall of 2011, the network's carriage has severely fallen from a peak of around 80 affiliates to only five as of October 2015; four of those affiliations are with low-power stations, with the other as a subchannel on a full-power station where only the main channel is usually picked up by cable providers under must carry provisions. TheCoolTV's output consists of subchannels of digital broadcast television stations and cable television providers in select U.S. media markets, the first of which was now-former affiliate WTMJ-TV, which added TheCoolTV to subchannel 4.3 on July 8, 2009. A large portion of its stations were owned and/or operated by Journal Communications, Sinclair Broadcast Group, and LIN TV〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Cool Music Network (THECOOLTV) and Sinclair Television Group Announce Partnership ) 〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Sinclair Multicasting Music Channel )〕〔("LIN Stations Get CoolTV" ), from broadcastingcable.com, 9/28/2010〕 The affiliate roster grew with help from an affiliation deal with three stations operated by McGraw-Hill.〔("Cool TV Inks Affiliate Deal With McGraw-Hill" ), from tvnewscheck.com, 1/18/2011〕 On April 5, 2011, The CoolTV signed an affiliate agreement with Newport Television for carriage on 10 of its 22 stations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=THECOOLTV Gains More Viewers Via Affiliate with Newport TV )〕 Stations affiliated with TheCoolTV have the nominal ability to cross-promote the network in association with a sister or affiliated radio station. However, the only affiliate that actually utilized this component was WTMJ-TV, which marketed TheCoolTV as a complement to its sister radio station, adult hits-formatted WLWK-FM (promoted as "TheCoolTV, hosted by 94-5 Lake FM"), with the other stations usually being part of ownership groups without any radio stations. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「TheCoolTV」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
