The Council of State had however considered that this addendum would prevent
reorganisation to the prime time of the channel, initially very extensively defined, covering
the period from 7 am to midnight. As a result, the Council of State sought a renegotiation
of this point between the M6 group and the CSA before 1 July 2008.
On 10 March 2008, M6 commenced exclusive negotiations with a view to acquiring 100%
of the Cyréalis Group that operates three additional sites on high-tech thematics (clubic.
com), video games (jeuxvideo.fr) and e-business (neteco.com) as well as an engine for
price comparison (achetezfacile.com).
The merger of Cyréalis and M6 Web would significantly expand the web content and
services offer of the M6 Group, which, by integrating the Internet expertise of the Cyréalis
staff, will provide the means of dynamising all the editorial sites and to become one of the
leading media players on the Internet. The integration of Cyréalis will thus lead to Group to
become one of the Top 15 most visited sites in France.
