MultiChoice will add the PBS Kids channel as a new youth television channel to all DStv packages but hasn't responded to media enquiries about it and when it will happen.
In July 2018 MultiChoice added PBS Kids content to its DStv Now Catch Up service.
At the time MultiChoice told TVwithThinus that it is testing the content and would make it more broadly available if there's a demand for it.
Now MultiChoice will add PBS Kids as a new youth channel to all of its various DStv packages "soon".
TVwithThinus asked MultiChoice at what date the PBS Kids channel will be added to DStv and what MultiChoice learnt from making PBS Kids content available on a video streaming basis first. MultiChoice spokespeople Benedict Maaga and Ntabiseng Motsei didn't respond.
PBS Kids is the children's programming brand of America's Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) that is broadcast as a kids programming block on PBS in the United States, but it is also a digital video channel streaming kids content as part of a video app that PBS launched in January 2017.
