Canal+ Aitio - Finland Television

in 2010, Canal+ announced it would launch a second Finnish-language sports channel in December, namely Canal+ Aitio (literally Canal+ Skybox) due to still retaining the rights to FA Premier League and UEFA Champions League unlike other countries. The new channel allowed broadcasting a second simultaneous match from the Premier League, for which they had to use FTA channels until the launch of Aitio. At the same time they also renamed the Finnish version of Canal+ Sport 1 as Canal+ Urheilu. HD versions of the channels have since appeared on all platforms.
