MultiChoice Bundles Two More Movie Channels To AddMovies

During the year, MultiChoice and M-Net ripped away fliekNET from DStv customers in South Africa and Namibia with the brand now reverted back to yearly pop-ups and kykNET now leading the pack with primetime movies.

AddMovies was introduced by September 2020 as M-Net was restructuring their movie offering for which was met with mixed to negative reviews primarily for those who were fans of M-Net Movies Premiere, M-Net Movies Action, M-Net Movies All-Stars and M-Net Movies Zone.

But thanks to the efforts of AddMovies they were able to keep the spark alive to even more households. Although, it will cost you extra which will be included in your monthly fees imagine bundling that with the Explora Ultra you're probably paying close to thousand.

Regardless AddMovies has seen a surge in subscribers but they're plenty of consumers who weren't as impressed with their selection of movies or at least the quantity of within the offering for which was lacking.

AddMovies initially started with 3 channels plus future popup channels or at least in the above mentioned regions but fliekNET didn't really have much impact as to why people got it in the first place and you can tell with the amount of rebroadcasts how miserable that channel was.

Honestly, fliekNET is better off as a pop-up or as seen with eExtra's Kuiertyd a block which airs at certain times of the week which is what I'm anticipating from kykNET's movie endeavours.

Anyways, MultiChoice seems to have added two of DStv Indian's current movie offerings SET Max and B4U Movies to the AddMovies family. Now I'm kind of curious as to what awaits from MultiChoice's next financial year.

Honestly, this just seems a bit much for AddMovies not that it's bad but the fact that one of them is stylised as the Bollywood version of M-Net Movies Premiere. Is it possible that maybe they'll hike it with the addition of these two?

All in all everyone but DStv Premium and Compact+ is a winner as Comedy Central, BET and MTV found their way to more households and Magic Showcase which is just MultiChoice's way of reinventing SABC will be rolling out in the coming month.
