RTL 7 is a Dutch free-to-cable television channel that was launched as Veronica on 1 September 1995.

This allows them to avoid more severe control by the Dutch media authorities as Luxembourg's television watchdog is less strict.

In the first year, it broadcasts a lot of American TV series, such as Beverly Hills, 90210, Melrose Place and Baywatch, films, Dutch programmes ranging from game shows to talk shows and Dutch TV series, such as Flodder and Onderweg naar Morgen.

At first, RTL came up with ME for both radio and television, with a campaign saying ME komt er aan (ME is coming), but a fashion label in the Netherlands (WE) complained about the similarity with its name.

The Dutch version of The Price Is Right, Cash en Carlo, referenced this fact when announcer Eddy Keur told contestants "Yorin the game!"

Some staff abroad were even mocked for the similarities, as well as a case where British journalists laughed at the name in Cannes, as reported by De Volkskrant.

[14] In the auctioning off of FM radio frequencies called ZeroBase, Holland Media Group acquired a lot allowing them to broadcast a popular music station virtually nationwide; this station was called Yorin FM with its most notable DJs being Rob Stenders, Robert Jensen and Henk Westbroek.

In 2006, due to disappointing results, Holland Media Group sold the station to SBS Broadcasting, who rebranded it Caz!

When Dutch media tycoon and Big Brother-inventor John de Mol announced the launch of a TV channel named Talpa, and contracted many popular Dutch TV hosts, the RTL Group felt the need to reorganize its channels.

Also, SBS6 was originally managed by Fons van Westerloo, who later became head of RTL Nederland before the rebranding operation.
