Gospel Music Channel Goes HD In November
TVPredictions.com

Washington, D.C. (November 3, 2009) -- The Gospel Music Channel says it will launch a HD simulcast channel on Friday, November 27, the day after Thanksgiving.

In a statement, the network did not say which, if any, TV providers would carry the high-def channel on launch. But it did say that it hoped to announce "affiliation agreements" by launch time.

 Charles Humbard, founder and president of GMC, said: "Like sports, no other genre of programming benefits as much from the High Definition experience as music. We have been aggressively producing original content and acquiring programming in high-def for quite some time in preparation for GMC HD. Affiliates and viewers have been asking for GMC in High Definition and the right time has come to provide it. We expect to announce affiliation agreements in time for the launch."
