On Monday afternoon, one of the presenters at Supa TV announced that the channel would stop airing on channel 150 from 30 July with no reason from either Openview or the channel about the sudden termination.
Supa TV launched in May 2020 as an interactive TV channel that featured shows about betting, lifestyle and obviously sports e.g. Mo Sports, Supabeats and Supachats.
My guess is Supabeats will go back to being a digital service with some content seen on Supa TV being uploaded onto YouTube. It wouldn't shock me if the next channels to go off air at some point is DBE TV and France24.
Even though Supa TV will not be replaced, Openview is in the process of launching two entertainment channels from the SABC one of which are rumored to be SABC Encore following the launch of SABC Sport and their 19 radio stations in April.
On top of that, eMedia Investments is scheduled to launch their streaming, eVOD which might follow TelkomOne which isn't competing with Netflix or Showmax.
