DStv switching off Chinese channel

MultiChoice will remove the CCTV-4 channel from its DStv satellite TV service at the end of the month.

The pay-TV broadcaster said this decision formed part of its regular review of channel offerings to ensure it provided customers with the "best in local and international content".

Cool. I guess DSTV subscribers can expect a price decrease in the monthly subsciption.

When DSTV in my home is not on sports it is on KIX, but KIX isn't Chinese per se, but damn, they have many Chinese reruns on there.
