This makes sense. I was talking to the head of vodacom FTTH a few months back and he mentioned vodacom were going to offer VOD along with their FTTH.

The assumption at the time was that vodacom was in talks with netflix, but they might want to have their own product

In which case why are they in talks with ShowMax?

This is Vodacoms strategy to introduce the "lite" users to the OOB shark..
