This is very dissapointing.
One would have thought that they could have at least launched these
two new channels by the end of 2012.
By that time there will be a myriad of alternative new choices
available on FTA, so SBS could very well be left behind.

SBS3 and SBS 41, to launch in 2013
OPTION 1 – by genre
SBS 3 – Stories that go deeper
• Adding depth and context to significant stories
International documentary strands, investigative reporting,
international news and current affairs, live and long-running sporting
events that better inform audiences and take them deeper into their
interests than can be offered on the main channel.
SBS will provide international perspectives on significant issues,
such as French documentaries about religion in schools, African
current affairs programs about aid and development, Chinese-language
programming about climate change and behind the scenes on preparations
for international sports events. SBS 3 will enable audiences to access
different perspectives and in-depth coverage beyond the sound grab, in
its original language, made accessible through subtitling.
SBS 4 – Unexpected stories
• Stories you would not know to search for
Exciting forms and genres curated for you beyond the barriers of
language or geography. In an era of on-demand and user-led services,
SBS will have a role in seeking out the best local international
stories that will surprise and enrich the media experiences of
audiences via subtitled original content.
A range of international comedy, animation, short film, soap opera,
quirky game and lifestyle shows, ‘cult’ and new international movies.
On SBS 4, audiences will watch their favourite Latin American
telenovellas, Japanese anime, emerging Australian animators and a
range of new, rich and engaging content navigated through the
electronic program guide.
OPTION 2 – by language
SBS 3 – Asia focus
• New and exciting stories from our region
A range of content from the rich continent of Asia, including film,
documentary, entertainment, drama and comedy from our Asian neighbours
allowing deeper exploration of Asia than can be catered to on the main
channel.
A range of content from Indian film,
to Japanese anime to Korean soap opera, as well as in-depth current
affairs and documentary on issues relevant to our region - including
climate change, human rights, international migration and global
business - allowing in-depth coverage in its original language, made
accessible to all Australians through subtitling.
SBS 4 – Europe focus
• Stories from the new Europe
Programming that explores the diverse cultures of Europe, with a
deeper view of the social, cultural and political issues facing this
changing continent.
A range of European comedy, soap opera, ‘cult’ and new movies, current
affairs and documentary exploring the varied cultural forms of the new
European Union. On SBS 4, audiences will watch the best of Spanish
film, French documentary, Russian comedy and food, travel, current
affairs and arts programs that explore the diverse cultural forms and
current issues of Europe.
In this option, SBS World would be adjusted to focus on regions
outside Asia and Europe including, for example, the Middle East and
Africa.
Deepening the range and variety of international, subtitled
programming SBS offers, navigated by audiences by language, cultural
form or genre. SBS will undertake consultation on and analysis of two
options:
