MultiChoice and eMedia have renewed their agreement to continue to broadcast eNCA (403) exclusively on the DStv platform and broadcast the daily Afrikaans News bulletin on kykNet (144) on its DStv platforms. This agreement is effective from 1 April 2022.

The channels that were part of the previous agreement are eMovies, eMovies Extra, eExtra and eToonz. This agreement will expire at the end of March 2022 and these channels will no longer be available on DStv from 1 April under the new agreement.

e.TV which is licenced under a separate agreement will continue to air on the DStv platform.

“We constantly review our channel offering on DStv in line with our viewer's needs. Although these four eMedia channels will no longer be available on DStv, customers still have access to a wide range of entertainment which includes 200 channels of movies, dramas, sport, kids, news, reality and so much more,” said Nyiko Shiburi, MultiChoice SA CEO.
