Top categories on Music channels distinctly differ across various channels: An AdEx India Analysis


(29 November 2003)

 

We at AdEx India decided to look at advertising on music channels this week. We found that amongst the music channels MTV is on the top followed by Channel [V], in terms of Ad duration. Even B4U Music and ETC are not left far behind.

Music channels attract a different set of audience as compared to other channel genres. Hence, advertising too is quite different from other channels. Categories like footwear and writing instruments, which do not rank high amongst all TV channel advertising, rank third and fourth respectively for music channel advertising. Similarly, categories like Corporate/Brand Image and shampoos, which are top categories on all TV advertising, are ranked much lower here. The following table illustrates this.

 


On analysing this for the individual channels the picture is even more contrasting. The category, which tops on B4U Music, is pan masala/ zarda/ gutkha. Liquor and hosiery are other noticeable contributors.


Aerated soft drinks dominate on Channel [V]. Perfumes/deodorant is another noteworthy contributor here.


Footwear, cellular phones and fairness creams top advertising on MTV.


All the above analyses have been based on Ad duration.

We shall come out with similar analyses on other channel genres in the coming days. Keep Watching..!
