The pay-TV operator says it is "satisfied" with the regulatory approvals it got prior to listing on the JSE.

Africa's biggest pay-TV operator banks on high data costs to keep Netflix at bay.

The pay-TV operator, set to list on the JSE next month, says it faces several risks and uncertainties, with Netflix a particular worry.

Internet giant Naspers confirms its video entertainment business will list on JSE on 27 February.

The company names Calvo Mawela group CEO and Imtiaz Patel executive chairman of the MultiChoice Group ahead of the JSE listing.

The African and Middle East pay-TV market is expected to outpace all other major regions between 2017 and 2022, says GlobalData.

The media and e-commerce group's plan to spin off MultiChoice will free up cash for the unit to compete with fast-growing Netflix and other streaming services.

Naspers looks to exit the pay-TV market by listing MultiChoice separately on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.

Organisations are realising they need to track customer expectations, pain points and trends to gain valuable insight into how to prosper in the digital age.

The partnership will see MultiChoice sponsor a research chair of machine learning at the University of Pretoria.

While the video-on-demand service is open to regulation in SA, Cell C's Black says the hype around Netflix is exaggerated.

The pay-TV giant calls for the regulation of over-the-top players in the local market.
