''We will issue all our press releases tomorrow [Thursday] and then give you much more detail. But whatever I share with you today you can obviously share, but we will give you all the schedules and that tomorrow. You can write what I give you here, but you won't be able to get specific programming content,'' she said.
''Since 1986 we had this one box with M-Net. Now 25 years later we will have an M-Net analogue signal and M-Net on DStv and these will evolve in different directions. Over the last few years we've had complaints from our analogue M-Net subscribers saying that we are not looking after their needs, so we've now decided to give them a different schedule, and to adapt the schedules between the analogue and digital from April.''
''So the good news for analogue viewers is that they will still get to see some sport and some Afrikaans added during the daytime on the analogue feed but on satellite M-Net will not have any Afrikaans content and sport anymore from April. The reason for that is that this same content you can see on kykNET (DStv 111) and the SuperSport channels elsewhere on DStv. So a show like Binneland for instance that's on M-Net, will remain on M-Net's analogue signal, but will move off M-Net on DStv and you'll be able to watch it on kykNET from April. So everyone who want to watch Binneland can still watch it. Then there will be no sport on M-Net on satellite because again, the same sport is already on SuperSport.''
M-Net says the pay broadcaster has about 150 000 analogue subscribers.
