As reported earlier today, SuperSport has begun work two more sports channels and there's not much new going onto the channels which has lately been a habit for consumers on the Access and Easyview packages seeing how affordable the offering has been lately.
Affordable led to consumers missing out on several premium content most of which resided in the sports section but as seen in their annual results MultiChoice has been losing consumers on the Premium and Compact bouquet and gaining on the Family to Easyview packages.
Taking that to account, is it shocking that SuperSport would further downsize their offering to consumers on the Access and if possible Easyview package.
SuperSport has seen a rise in competition with the addition of SABC Sport on the Openview platform which has led several consumers to opt for free entertainment and if anything these channels could be on that platform for that particular reason.
Again this is just speculation as MultiChoice might as well make these Compact tiered but what makes it feel more geared to consumers on Access is the amount of Tennis, Athletics, Hockey, Swimming and various here are there's like WWE Jumbo, Track And Field, SuperSport School etc.
Soccer is not a top priority for these channels at the moment but if you look at it not everyone wants another SuperSport Football much less SABC Sport.
But if you want to clear vision of these channels, imagine the first as SuperSport Premier League but with less soccer and the other as a merger between SuperSport Blitz and SuperSport Variety 4.
