The Brazilian operations of what was then-known as MTVNLA, prior to the rebranding as VIMN The Americas, were called Viacom Networks Brasil, since Abril, the parent company of MTV Brasil, has the exclusive rights to the MTV brand in that country, though, from October 2013, VIMN The Americas reclaimed the MTV brand in Brazil and relaunched the channel, currently a broadcast network, as a cable channel. Viacom International Media Networks The Americas has announced the more localization of content on Nickelodeon for Brazil, and MTV and Nickelodeon channels for Argentina and Mexico.
