Development Alert: Novela Magic's Frequencies Being Used On An Upcoming DStv Channel

Novela Magic was Africa's first attempt at a channel for locally produced telenovelas. Operated by M-Net, the channel would source content from various local channels already viewed on DStv such as Zambezi Magic, Maisha Magic and Pearl Magic to make them more reachable.

After its two year run, further content from Novela Magic was folded under Magic Showcase. A channel curated specifically for their DStv Easyview consumers in Southern Africa alongside GOtv Lite consumers in ROA.

During the month, it was reported MultiChoice might be looking to add possibly their last channel of the year. A name has yet to be announced but from what we could gather this may have some relation to Soweto TV pertaining to the shows: Faith Cooking and Ladies In Heels.

We were also able to uncover that MultiChoice was disposing the corpse of previous TV channels or basically ones managed by M-Net with VUZU's frequencies used on Play Room and now Novela Magic for this supposed channel.

Unlike previous weeks, MultiChoice has managed to add more shows and surprisingly movies to the line-up. So it's only a matter of time till we get a name for this anticipated addition alongside a date and package which we presume would be on Easyview later in December.
