myx or MYX (pronounced /miks/ as in "mix") is the music channel of ABS-CBN and is currently one of the most popular music channels in the Philippines. It is also a segment of Studio 23's program line-up.

What makes this channel unique is that as the music videos are played, the song's lyrics are flashed on-screen, allowing the viewers to sing along, or to simply learn the lyrics more easily. This was inherited from the karaoke channel VID-OK. At first, VID-OK aired generic karaoke clips, but later played videos with lyrics.

On February 28, 2007 MYX launched on DIRECTV channel 2067.
