Muz-TV

Muz-TV (, from Музыкальное телевидение - Music Television) is a Russian music TV channel, broadcasting since 1996. It is largely modelled after western MTV and predates launching of MTV Russia in 1998. Muz-TV was founded by Sergey Lisovsky and Boris Zosimov. The CEO of Muz-TV is Zakhar Babin.

In 2011, Muz-TV is owned by UTH Russia, which is, in turn, 49% owned by MTV. In 2024, Ivan Tavrin's Kismet Group agreed to sell media assets, including the Muz-TV and Yu TV channels, as well as the radio station Choose Radio, to a group of investors including Media Telecom (JV Rostelecom and NMG).
