ROFL. There's still 50% of that Multiplex 3 available.
Multichoice have in effect been awarded 4 hi-definition channels.

If they want to complaining with some credibility, they should complain about the massive piece of spectrum handed over to the SABC instead of making this a racial divide issue.

Hell, E-TV got the entire Multiplex 2. Damn!

In a letter to Icasa chairman Paris Mashile, the Nafcoc-led consortium said it was shocked that the final regulations had been promulgated without a “proper or formal” consultative process having been conducted after extensive concerns were forwarded in response to draft regulation on or before April 30.

ROFL. This is the same tactics ICASA pulled with their ADSL regulations.

Instead of being outsourced to Telkom's lawyers, these ones were outsourced to the lawyers of the Triad.
