MultiChoice would like to notify its DStv subscribers that it has received notification from ESPN that it intends to close the ESPN and ESPN Classic Television Channels in Africa on 31 July 2013.
This appears to be a business decision by ESPN affecting all its channels in Africa, Europe and Middle East.
MultiChoice will keep its subscribers informed of developments in this regard and would like to thank them for their continued support.
This is definitely sad news for fans of American sports like the NBA and NFL, whose only way to watch them was on DSTV via ESPN.
Are we sure this is coming from ESPN and not simply a change from Multichoice? I suspect ESPN have started charging for their broadcasts and Multichoice is not willing to spend more.
ReplyDeletemy thoughts as well, i think this is as a result of Multichoice demands thats why they are backing out.
DeleteI only watch espn and follow all american sports especially nascar and this is ridiculous!
