Showmax being integrated into DStv – Sources

Showmax is being integrated into DStv, industry sources have told MyBroadband.

Great news. It should've been free if you have DSTV premium already from the get go.

Great news. It should've been free if you have DSTV premium already from the get go.

agreed, but they do not think ahead.

Great news. It should've been free if you have DSTV premium already from the get go.

It doesn't mention it will be free? It'll probably be discounted.

I predict differently, that showmax will start to show sport but the sport will be shown after the live event.

 

[Yuu]

Now it all makes sense why Voda was charging one to have data for only DSTn or SM. :crylaugh:

Does this mean DSTV Now / Supersport will finally come to consoles as i think i saw Showmax saying console apps were coming [not anymore now?] :wtf:?

 

[Swa]

Next step of what I said would happen. Eventually it will be the same thing with packages being accessible through either medium.

I agree and maybe DST should think of lowering the subscription to Showmax to the lower packaged subscribers. Netflix is a real competition to Showmax.

For being a Trillion Rand company Naspers are pretty afraid of making an odd loss here and there. It's going to be the death of them.

 

[Creag]

agreed, but they do not think [-]ahead[/-].

I think this is what you meant to say?

All this appears to indicate is that S/M may not be that profitable as a standalone. Integration makes sense. DSTV Catch Up will become ShowMax?
