Canal Sony
Canal Sony (""Sony Channel"", in both Spanish and Portuguese; formerly called Sony Entertainment Television), is a general entertainment channel co-based in Perú, Chile, Venezuela, Brazil and Miami, Florida, United States. It airs in 26 countries in Latin America, and is owned by Sony Pictures Entertainment. In the region, it is distributed by HBO Latin America Group. It was the first pan-regional basic channel that offered programming in its original English language with subtitles and became an award-winning trend setting network. 
Canal Sony began transmission in August 1995, as a basic cable television channel. Its first launch in Mexico was on Televisa's Cablevision cable TV system in March 1996 followed by its launch in Brazil that same Spring. Unlike most national television networks in Latin America, which air all imported shows dubbed in Spanish or Portuguese, Sony started airing its programming with subtitles which led to its role as a regional leader.
