Could MultiChoice And M-Net Also Look To Close M-Net Movies 3 And M-Net Movies 4 On The DStv Platform?

During the week, it was reported that both Me and 1Magic which serves as secondary channels to M-Net would be exiting the DStv platform by the end if March. Not only are consumers going to pay more for less channels but M-Net is doing away with secondary brands.

Since then, consumers having been going on a downward spiral with some looking to cancel their subscription by the time the new prices come into affect with others downgrading to more affordable packages.

M-Net is streamlining its channel offering to provide a more seamless entertainment experience for DStv customers. After a comprehensive analysis of our content strategy, we have made the decision to terminate 1Magic [and Me].

Of course these endeavors does lead some to wonder if more TV channels could be affected particularly M-Net Movies. If M-Net is capable of doing away with a brand such as Me what's stopping them from doing the same with their movie offering.

Ever since M-Net Movies was restructured almost four years ago, M-Net Movies 1 and 2 have been lurking around the same corridor as their lower tiered counterparts M-Net Movies 3 and M-Net Movies 4 which had bombarded with repeats and other older films.

MultiChoice has been looking to further limit amount of repeats seen on DStv. The movie offering has the most repetition before M-Net Movies 1 and M-Net Movies 2 previous iterations were more priotised with fresher releases now that's not the case.
