Pop Plus was a free-to-air British satellite television channel owned by CSC Media Group. It was licensed to air animation and music, and operated as a sister channel to the already-existing Pop. The channel operated the same broadcast hours as its sister channel (6am to 8pm at the time; Pop later expanded to its current 24-hour service) and was not a direct timeshift of its sibling, instead offering an alternative mix of the channel's content.
