Since then iM1 could only be received via IPTV .
program
iM1 Hits described itself as an interactive music channel and broadcast current music videos around the clock, which were interrupted by advertising. The music videos were able to be voted high by showing numbers via a chargeable SMS system. In May 2014, a live chat was added, in which viewers can chat with the iM1 editorial team and share their music requests. A photo upload was also available since June 2014.
