New DStv M-Net series channels announced

Oh YAY more repeats

Unfortunately the nature of TV is that there will be repeats. Luckily for you, SABC has less repeats than Multichoice. I suggest you refrain from 'tarded comments, cancel your DSTV subscription and focus your time on the quality offerings on SABC. Remember to pay your TV licence.
 
The market speak in the press release is just nauseating:

whilst DStv Compact customers will follow their favourite series on M-Net Series Zone

will make it easy for everyone to catch up on all the series action they may have missed

our incredible series portfolio in an easy to find, well structured, channel offering

My expert opinion: Whatever
 
I wonder what will be offered on the drifta/walker etc?
Showcase I imagine if you're a premium subscriber?
 
Another issue is that all of the episodes are months behind. Yes, I know, it's more expensive to buy rights to them early, but still, doesn't help those of us who have access to the shows via other avenues.
 
don't worry we will vote with our feet ... and our wallets. :)

Very good suggestion... Up until the SABC stuff. I cancelled mine and went for Netflix and Hulu.
And I still pay my TV license.
 
Yes and I have to wait for DSTV to broadcast them. Hello Netflix!
 
No new series McD...

Its an excuse to start every series that Multichoice has in its vaults as S1E1 again...
 
For me, the headline should have been "Series Channel in HD". This is a long overdue update.

Despite all the DStv hate on these forums, I'm a Premium subscriber, and I think that DStv does a pretty good job of bringing the latest US series to SA. Sure, they charge more than I'd like, but Netflix, Hulu, etc don't come close to replacing DStv.
 
Really don't think this is about repeats... It's another way to shaft everyone who isn't a premium subscriber, end of story. Sorry for ya'all if you've been enjoying current series with your compact subscription but I recon those days are past.
Oh, and my name is Greg and I have been DStv free for two months today.
