    We're a team of music fanantics, our sole mission is to be vital for anyone who loves music and pop culture, offering more music than any other network across eight world famous brands - The Box, 4Music, Smash Hits, Kiss, Kerrang! Magic and Heat. There are lots of good things that come with a bunch of music nuts. We are up for trying new things and can respond at lightning speed to the whims of our fans, talent and clients. We represent our audience as most of us, well, are our audience. We look top dollar but don't cost very much at all, you can watch online for free or via The Box+ app and here’s where else you can find us - all of this has helped us become the UK's number one music TV network. Now grab a cuppa for the history bit. The Box channel was launched in the UK in 1992 by Vincent Monsey and Liz Laskowski, then in 1996 Emap bought it and increased its distribution across the UK. The Box was a huge success so five new channels were launched on Sky and Virgin; Kiss and Q in 2000 then Kerrang!, Smash Hits and Magic a year later. Still with us? Following this in 2002 The Hits launched on Freeview, Sky and cable and by 2005 it was the UK's most watched music TV channel, whipping MTV. In 2007 Channel 4, keen to strengthen its music TV output and engage a sizeable youth audience, bought 50% of Box TV and in 2007 Emap sold its 50% share (along with its radio and magazine business) to Bauer Media, this made Box TV the love child of these two media giants, Channel 4 and Bauer Media. In August 2008 we waved goodbye to The Hits and re-launched it as 4Music, winning a Broadcast Award and stomping on our competitors to become the UK's number one music TV channel, and you can see why here. Then later in 2012 we re-launched Q as heat, the feelgood pop channel and TV iteration of the famous celeb culture brand. Following this, we expanded our international offering launching The Box Africa to showcase the hottest global Hip Hop and R’n’B stars plus local African beats. In January 2015, we changed the company name from Box TV to The Box Plus Network to reflect our changing business which now reaches youth audiences on multiple platforms, not just via TV.

AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
MobileCoreServices
Use uniform type identifier (UTI) information to create and manipulate data that can be exchanged between your app and other apps and services using MobileCoreServices.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
System Configuration F...
This collection of documents describes the programming interfaces of the System Configuration framework. The System Configuration framework provides functions that determine the reachability of target hosts in both a synchronous and an asynchronous manner. It also provides error detection facilities.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
