DStv adds three channels to mobile TV service

MultiChoice-owned DStv is adding ShortsTV, Ginx TV and Eurochannel to its mobile TV service DStv Now. 

The African pay TV operator said that the three channels – which air short films, video-game themed content and cultural programming respectively – will be available on the app-based service for a “limited period”.

“This marks an unprecedented move for MultiChoice as new channels usually hit linear television first,” said DStv.

DStv Premium PVR customers can access video content on the DStv Now app via iOS and Android devices.
