Openview Channel Changes From 01 January 2023 To 31 March 2024

Unlike MultiChoice, 2023 was anything but productive for eMedia Investments free-to-air households. Several developments had occurred during the financial period but it's safe to say that part of these wasn't the most noteworthy with consumers. 

Last year, eMedia Investments had launched its rival offering to MultiChoice's DStv, Ultraview. Similar to the AddMovies format, it would consist of two bouquets one Spice TV is home to Bollywood favourites while the other EDGE serves a younger demographic. 

eMedia Investments has yet to share how many of their current Openview consumers had added Ultraview to their current subscription. Through an open window, it's evident that Spice TV is getting the most attention which consists of Zee Family and Star Select.

Outside of these endeavors, there was barely much to report for their non-paying consumers. eMedia Investments had rebranded one of their current TV channels eXposed to eSeries and also added two radio stations, Jacaranda FM and East Coast Radio.

LM Radio and BOK Radio were axed in favor of the these two stations while as Glow TV's lineup was supplemented by existing entertainment viewed on Star Life and Zee One.

eMedia Investments had promised to launch a few more TV channels none of which came to pass. Although consumers saw an increase in content investment with the addition of WildEarth on People's Weather both off which were formerly seen on MultiChoice's DStv.
