I would think that as a staff member you would have liberally sprinkled 'so called' and 'allegedly' throughout your article.

2/10.

You can do better.

If there's no product to pay for, you are the product.

Yeah, but that involves a license. Streaming doesn't.

I feel I am too brown to partake in this service

They don't make money from this, so the product analogy isn't really applicable.

Unlike many of these services, AfriForumTV is free, with no monthly or once-off charges. There are also no ads.

Good timing though IMO. Having kids programs that don't involve the grooming of children is a win in my book.

I went to their website and it's in Afrikaans. How can I watch? Will everything on AfriforumTV be in Afrikaans?

True, the crap that gets sold on Nickelodeon and kie as children TV is horse manure. Having its roots in politics have me a little bit wary, but at least the kids will hopefully grow up as uncorrupted politicians (I think I just invented another oxymoron)

The kids TV is going to be a rebroadcast of the 70s and 80s I'm afraid, unless they have a serious budget. We'll I watched kids TV in the 80s and I turned out OK... Ish... I think lol

I get what they are doing, or endeavour to achieve, but they don’t have a niche product, streaming is a broad product, their medium, the language, is a niche, but their market is broad within which they want to target a niche audience. I am sorry to say, but even a ‘minority product’ needs to target the larger market. Good luck, I like to be surprised.
