The channel consisted of classical, opera, chillout, ambient, vaporwave & world music.

The selection of the music videos played on oMusic were aided by interactive service (via the Green Button) technology and an SMS polling system. [1]

Some oMusic programming later reappeared as a programming block within Open Access 3 before the channel's closure on 4 April 2011.

Turkish Radio and Television Corporation Turkish national public broadcaster

The Turkish Radio and Television Corporation is the national public broadcaster of Turkey, founded in 1964. Around 70% of TRT's funding comes from a tax levied on electricity bills and a license tax on television and radio receivers. As these are hypothecated taxes, as opposed to the money coming from general government funds, the principle is similar to that of the television licence levied in a number of other countries, such as the BBC in the United Kingdom. The rest of TRT's funding comes from government grants, with the final 10% coming from advertising. TRT was for many years the only television and radio provider in Turkey. Before the introduction of commercial radio in 1990, and subsequently commercial television in 1992, it held a monopoly on broadcasting. More recent deregulation of the Turkish television broadcasting market produced analogue cable television. Today, TRT broadcasts around the world, especially in Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Australia.
