There are two state-owned channels, France 2 and France 3 where programmes are financed mostly by revenue from the TV licences paid by all TV owners, as well as four privately-owned channels. These are TF1 (télévision française 1) which has an obligation to ensure that 50% of its programmes are of French origin; Canal Plus, a subscription-operated channel which requires the use of a decoder except during brief periods when programmes are not scrambled (i.e. when they are broadcast en clair); la Cinquième (an educational channel) and Arte (a Franco-German cultural channel) which broadcast programmes on the same frequency but at different times of the day; and finally M6, a popular commercial channel.[ʃɛn] nom féminin1.
