South Africans living abroad have a new way to get a taste of home as kykNET expands its footprint, using the ShowMax video on demand platform to supply content to Afrikaans speakers in selected countries in UK, US, Australia, Canada and New Zealand via the ShowMax platform.
With around 13,000 episodes of TV shows and movies, kykNET International launches with almost 6000 hours of Afrikaans language programming. For US$ 8.99 per month, viewers will have unlimited access to classic favourites such as Molly en Wors, Song vir Katryn, Vallei van Sluiers and Plek van die Vleisvreters, as well as the latest episodes of Kwela, Binnelanders, Villa Rosa and Robinson. The platform will have new content within 24 hours of it airing in South Africa.
ShowMax can be accessed via dedicated smart TV apps, via web browser on laptop and desktop computers, and using Android and iOS apps for tablets and smartphones. With a single subscription, two different shows can be watched on separate devices simultaneously. For more information, go to www.showmax.com.
