MultiChoice will switch Turner Broadcasting's Cartoon Network (DStv 301) and its recently-rebranded movie channel TNT (DStv 137) both to high definition (HD) from 18 December 2018 on DStv in South Africa and across sub-Saharan Africa.
MultiChoice says the upgrade of Cartoon Network and TNT to HD "is a direct response to the needs of African audiences, ensuring a truly immersive viewing experience".
Guillaume Coffin, vice-president and head of commercial and business development for Turner France and Africa, says "the addition of our new HD channels speaks to our commitment to provide our viewers with the best available content on the best available platform, highlighting our drive to continuously innovate".
"African fans remain our top priority and we look forward to seeing their response following the shift to HD."
