The channel used to be broadcast only in Italy and Portugal. A forthcoming Asian version of the channel is presently being promoted on National Geographic channels across the continent.
In Italy it could be found on channel 710 of SKY Italia; before (from the launch until April 30, 2008) it was at channel 406. In Portugal, the channel was transmitted through the IPTV and satellite operator Meo, both on channel 148. It was available also in most European countries, including the Czech Republic and the UK.
Nat Geo Music used to refer to the National Geographic Society's music website and record label, which work in conjunction with the TV Channel.
The Nat Geo Music website was launched in April, 2006 and spotlights music from around the globe with a multimedia mix of videos, mp3 and text features, including country and genre descriptions, artist profiles, interviews, music news, and more.
It was announced that the channel will cease broadcast in most territories on August 31, 2011 and will be later replaced by a different station from FOX, but it only really ceased broadcasting on the 31st of October 2011.
