'Brand New's Most Wanted' reflected the most wanted and downloaded clips from the Internet: To create this playlist, the MTV music editorial team in Berlin analyzed the most relevant platforms from the fields of video, P2P and mobile with regard to the most popular music genres of the target group and selected the most popular titles.

The station is ad-free.

Since November 3, 2014, MTV Brand New has stopped broadcasting "Brand New's Most Wanted" and "Trendpool". The program consists mostly of the clip series "Future Hits", which now shows a mix of all music series. In addition, MTV Brand New broadcast the "Europe Music Awards" live for the first time on November 9, 2014, and repeated the award show in the weeks that followed. Sporadic "MTV Unplugged" repeats also found their way into the program.

The MTV Brand New program is now increasingly based on the German charts. The station also plays more music by German artists, especially from the German rap and hip hop genres.

In contrast to MTV Hits and MTV Dance, which, because of the broadcasting in different countries, have to comply with different youth protection regulations, MTV Brand New shows music clips from the age of 16 and from 18 years on, basically uncensored and uncut. On April 6, 2017, MTV Brand New censored Iggy Azalea's "Mo Bounce" video and set the two words "Mother fucking" to music throughout the clip.
