MultiChoice renews Warner Bros. Discovery channel rights across Africa

MultiChoice just saved its content library from getting nuked into oblivion. The satellite giant managed to keep twelve Warner Bros. Discovery channels after parent company Canal+ secured a massive multi-year arrangement. This contract covers regions across Africa and Europe while adding HBO Max distribution into the mix. It serves as an extension of previous pacts made for the French and Polish markets.

Subscribers in South Africa get to hog CNN International and Cartoon Network exclusively. Angola and Mozambique secured sole access to Cartoon Network Porto. Everyone else receives shared access to staples like the Discovery Channel, TLC, HGTV, TNT Africa, and Food Network. Travel, ID, and Cartoonito also stay on the menu without exclusivity restrictions.

Management claims this move beefs up the entertainment and documentary lineup significantly. Viewers gain better access to premium movies and series through the integrated streaming service. The studio extends its reach globally while the pay-TV provider consolidates its grip on key territories.
