The world is increasingly a melting pot, with all countries containing citizens not native to them. This results in a plethora of languages being spoken and heard. To deal with this, countries carry an increasing number of foreign language channels to accommodate all people.
Now Sling TV, a new kind of "cable" service, is getting into the game, introducing a package of Arabic language channels for those people who may be feeling a bit out of place away from their home lands.
Quite a number of stations are included in this new deal, also. Sling lists "Al Arabiya, Al Hayah, Al Jazeera Mubasher, Al Jazeera News, Al Nahar, Al Yawm, ART Aflam 1, ART Aflam 2, ART America, ART Cima, ART Cinema, ART Hekayet 2, ART Movies, BBC Arabic, Dream 2, ESC-1, Future Television, Hekayet, LBC, LDC America, MBC, MBC 3, MBC Drama, MBC Masr, Melody Aflam, Melody Classic, Murr TV, NBN, New TV, Nile Drama, ONTV, OSN Ya Hala International, OTV, Rotana America and TEN Egypt. Iqraa, Noursat and Aghapy".
In addition to television programming, Sling is introducing an Arabic music package that will be available for an additional $10 per month for anyone interested.
Sling has many add-on packages, including sports and news, even HBO. This however, is the full subscription and it will run $25 per month, so a bit more than standard Sling. Add-ons are generally another $5. Those who wish to find out more can visit the Facebook page, or simply head to Sling.TV.
