MultiChoice To Stream Netflix And Amazon On Explora Decoder

Entertainment giant MultiChoice has some great news for its customers after entering a deal with both Netflix and Amazon stream their services on its Explora decoder.

This means that MultiChoice customers with an Explora decoder will be able to access services from both Netflix and Amazon going forward.

The announcement was made during the release of the giant’s financial results for the year ended March 2020, kicking off the possibility of Netflix and Amazon Prime Video becoming available on the Explora decoder

It, however,  remains unclear when this new device will launch or whether these services will become available for current decoders but the market is already excited.

“To position the business for the future, leverage the group’s scale and enhance the product ecosystem by providing access to a wider variety of content, the group recently concluded distribution agreements with two major international Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) providers,” MultiChoice said.

The company says that in addition to compelling local stories, and the best of sport and international content, they will now be integrating third-party streaming services onto our DStv platform.

“We recently signed distribution agreements with two major international Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) providers that will give our customers simplicity, choice, and convenience,” said the company.

The aftermath of COVID-19 and the low oil price, although uncertain in quantum, will likely have a negative impact on the economies of many of the company’s markets, with weaker currencies and higher levels of unemployment expected.

“Although the impacts of this on the Group’s performance is not yet known, we are taking steps to counter potential future headwinds. As we have in the past, when there are challenges, we take them head-on, ensuring continued value for our shareholders and customers.”
