DStv subscribers might lose 12 channels if MultiChoice, which Canal+ recently bought, can't lock down a deal with Warner Bros. Discovery before year-end. The potential casualties include Discovery Channel, CNN International, Cartoon Network, Food Network, Investigation Discovery, HGTV, TLC, and five others. MultiChoice put out a notice saying talks are still happening but nothing's finalized yet, and they're warning viewers the channels could vanish after the start of next year.

The company says it's working on beefing up its lineup with replacement content across sports, news, lifestyle, kids programming, and documentaries. People online are pretty salty about it, though. Lots of folks are saying they already barely watch DStv anymore because the pricing sucks and you can't pick which channels you want. Others are pointing out that losing channels like HGTV and Cartoon Network would make the service way less worthwhile, especially if MultiChoice doesn't drop the subscription fees to match.
