Says Nolo Letele MultiChoice CEO “The addition of these channels is in line with our commitment to continually enrich and enhance the television viewing experience of our subscribers. In addition to upgrading our interactive services on a regular basis, bringing the best channels from around the world remains our key priority.”

or rather:

“The addition of these channels is in line with our urgent need to stave off potential competition and enhance the television viewing experience of our subscribers... sufficiently enough that they won't look elsewhere.”

or

"We want to take advantage of the Christmas-shopping season by dishing out a few carrots on a string."

I happen to have Every single special edition Startrek Movie, Every single TV Episode from Old Series, TNG, DS9, VOY & ENT. All i'm shorting is a handful of documentaries, and the newly re-mastered Original Series Episodes thats doing the rounds!.
Infact, I'm busy re-watching DS9 atm. The big buildup to the Space battle!. : ))

Other Than that - I wish we had the same Sci-Fi Channel as overseas, I mean, BSG, Bionic woman and all those TV eps are aired on them!.

Hey...sell them to the ANCBC...at least those of who can't afford or refuse to pay for Monochoice's drivel will have something to watch!

There's got to be someone happy with the Anime channel, actually thought that would be a big hit.

not another fashion channel to ruin my sports experience on a saturday

 

[theStudent]

Im still waiting for a comedy channel

All we get are useless/cheap channels, so that can be used as an excuse to raise subscription fees

LOL@ Mnet Stars

Why don't they just stop repeating the same old chunk on both MM channels.

Style Network Channel

YAY

More bollywood stuff

 

[Moederloos]

sigh - scifi would have drawn me back.

Sorry DSTV - no money from me.

 

[Lydon]

Who are Multichoice trying to fool? We all know the only reason they are adding new channels is because competition is on the horizon.

 

[LabAnimal]

yea, multichoice can go to hell.

The only choice you have is flicking thru all the boring channels!. Real choice is to choose which channels you want and pay only for those. And I mean channels like our International Counterparts, not these watered down censorred crap-repeated to death they're punting!. Real HBO, Sci-Fi, and all the popular channels all the latest TV eps are on overseas!.

Doubt it is Bollywood stuff as that would not match the press release description. Seems that may be SET (india) which goes out on the Indian bouquet (?)

According to that, it will be like M-Net with shows etc from US and UK

 

[MrWireless]

Wow - a whole 5 new channels....most the stuff on there is rubbish anyways. They need more QUALITY movie channels...most people dont watch half the rubbish they have on there!

*sigh*

 

[gregmcc]

The extra 5 channels are a real joke! And the other channels aren't much better. How many more repeats of Dirty Jobs are they going to show!!!
