Catch me today on CNBC Africa between 18:00 and 18:30 in Beyond Markets talking about the pay-TV market in South Africa.

You can catch me today on television (hopefully) sometime between 18:00 and 18:30 in the programme Beyond Markets on CNBC Africa (DStv 410), discussing the pay-TV market and industry in South Africa.

Beyond Markets speaks to leaders, experts and newsmakers around the continent and the topic I was asked to comment about was the challenges of the pay-TV industry in South Africa.

There's never any guarantees, but it was recorded earlier this week, and perhaps some of my comments make the show. Beyond Markets on the African business channel will be taking a look at the challenges and changes of South Africa's subscription television industry.

Some of the focus will be of course on On Digital Media's TopTV which is currently in business rescue under the Companies Act and is again making waves in the local TV biz with this ongoing news story now dominating the news agenda.
