Update: We have just been told by the staff of 9XM that the folks at 8XM have provided us with misleading information. 8XM in no way is associated with 9XM and the guys behind it are only using the name to market the brand. 9X Media Private Limited are in contemplation of initiating appropriate legal action against such persons, for the usage of 8xm which is deceptively similar to their well know trademark 9XM.
Original story:
As you may probably already have heard of ‘9XM‘ an Indian entertainment channel, they are now all set to launch the Pakistani version of it. We don’t have much information on the channel yet but a source close to the channel says that it’ll be much like 9XM as long as the pattern of the shows is concerned.
The website for 8XM was registered on 11th of July 2011 so the channel has been doing the operations for at least 2 months. The website, however, is still under construction.
Pakistani music channels have almost failed to do justice to Pakistani music by limiting the airtime. Will an Indian channel save the day or make things worse?
We still haven’t heard when will the channel be launched but we will keep you guys posted as we hear more.
Below is some of the artwork for the shows that the channel will be airing.

Excellent channel shukar hai koi tu channel hai Jo piracy nhn kar raha warna Pakistan mei tu almost all other music r just like cd channel blur screens n pathetic quality ….this channel saves the name of Pak internationally as all Pali singers r now singing in Bollywood as well ….u rock
Criticising us will do you guys no use , it is an authorized and a very legal channel! Talking about indian media bro,thats exactly what you want to see! You need to stop being hypocrites! And just for your information were in a legal contract with 9XM. Its very much a Pakistani entertainment channel and everyone needs to take it that way!
Sincerely,
The owner of the channel.

Technically,the manager of 8xm is right,most of us are hypocrites,but Iam not.Although Iam not a fan of Rahat and Atif.I really like SYMT,CALL,ROXEN,STRINGS e.t.c.Iam not against the airing of Indian content,but Iam against the fact that Pakistani music is not even being given enough time,and as the 8XM Manager said Indian Media is what we really want to see,actually thats not true,people do watch Bollywood movies but do not listen to Bollywood music,bcoz well about 60 percent of the singers are Pakistani in Bollywood and also they want to watch Katrinas and Kareenas not listen to Bollywood music.Fuck you 8xm
