History

The original two M-Net movie channels, Movie Magic 1 and Movie Magic 2, were renamed M-Net Movies 1 and M-Net Movies 2, respectively, in 2005. [1] Two additional movie channels, M-Net Movies Stars and M-Net Movies Action, were later launched. In October 2012, the original two movie channels were replaced with six HD channels which grouped films according to genre.[2] These new channels, along with the pre-existing Action, Stars and Zone, made for a total of nine movie channels.
