ETC is a Chilean cable TV channel currently owned by Mega. The channel's slogan is "Todo pasa por Etc..." (Everything Happens on Etc...). Launched in 1996, the company was previously owned by Telefilms Ltda. Starting with a low budget, the channel was originally conceived as a "miscellaneous" channel (the name of the channel, ETC, is based on et cetera), focusing on children's programming and some North American sitcoms in their first year. In 1997 when the channel aired Sailor Moon and Saint Seiya, the station experienced an increase in ratings, leading the station to narrow their focus to include primarily Japanese anime, though in recent years they have also added some South Korean contents including music and kdrama.
