New Channel Alert (Rumour): Moja Love Owners To Allocate Third TV Channel To The DStv Platform Likely For Easyview Customers

A couple of years ago, Siyaya TV was planning to rollout its own rival platform for MultiChoice's DStv but unsuccessful opted for Moja Love. Since its launch, it happens to be one of the leading brands on DStv for shows like X-Repo, Uyajola 9/9 and Show Me Love.

It wasn't long till MultiChoice would have spun off the channel to Access consumers under Moja 9.9. serving as a platform for archived material alongside content already viewable on Moja Love.

During the week, MultiChoice had begun tests on another HD channel from Siyaya TV whose identity as been revealed. But from what we can make of this it might have something to do with Moja Love as one of its most controversial shows Umakwapheni is slotted there.

Other than that no other program can be viewed on this possible new channel either because Siyaya TV hasn't added other content to the channel yet or possibly hadn't provided MultiChoice with a full length programme guide.

And if this channel paints out to be what I'm assuming "another repeats channel" then I'm guessing this channel will be tailored to Easyview customers should it be a copycat to Moja 9.9. and something like that would come out as a bit weird on MultiChoice's part.

I mean Moja 9.9. already exists it would have made more sense moving that to Easyview as opposed to starting up another channel to rehash shows. It's not like Easyview has that many consumers but considering what happened with Magic Showcase anything can be expected.

Foxtel closed several premium channels in Australia due to streamlining attempts I'm assuming this is MultiChoice's way of investing less time with DStv. They lose several premium clients every year and maybe something like this one way to save up on costs.

Despite Easyview being a small base within the DStv bouquet, MultiChoice does offer other packages in neighbouring countries so this channel may cater to them as well if not only South Africa.
