The Competition Appeal Court has ordered MultiChoice to put four e.tv-supplied TV channels from eMedia back on DStv.eMedia then took the case to the Competition Appeal Court.
The ruling comes after MultiChoice decided not to extend the channel's carriage contract, prompting eMedia to take the Randburg-based satellite pay-TV operator to the Competition Commission. However, eMedia took the case to the Competition Appeal Court after MultiChoice dropped the collection of e.tv-packaged channels, including eExtra, eMovies, eMovies Extra and eToonz, from DStv on 30 May.
MultiChoice did opt to keep – under a separate agreement – the TV news channel eNCA and e.tv from eMedia. This includes the 7-day a week eNuus Afrikaans TV news bulletin packaged by eNCA and supplied to M-Net's kykNET and kykNET & Kie channels. Following the Competition Appeal Court judgment, MultiChoice must now put the four e.tv channels back on DStv for another six months, pending a Competition Commission investigation.
