Alpenglühen TVX was an Austrian pay-tv channel founded in 2007, offering erotic comedies from the 1970s and 1980s. The channel was discontinued in March 2012 due to a lack of economic success.[1] It was licensed by the Austrian media authority KommAustria and operated by Alpenglühen Media GmbH, 90 percent of which was in the hands of Munich media entrepreneur Gottfried Zmeck. With his Mainstream Media AG, the Austrian-born company also hosts the pay-TV channels GoldStar TV, Heimatkanal, Hit24 and Romance TV.
