too!

This was enough to make my mind up about HDTV:

"Sky HD is going to be massive here in the UK as people start jumping on
the HDTV bandwagon, if you now walk into Dixon's or Comet all you will
^^^^^^^
This was enough to make me realise that they're a bunch of muppets and
don't have a clue. It's Dixons not Dixon's :(

So are you going to be able to just have the basic two mix subscription,
plus HD or are you going to have to have the full package plus HD?

Lets face it how much stuff is there going to be available that is
actually HD and not upscaled SD? Most of the US imports on Sky One would
be HD, but what else will they show? Premiership football, handful of
games a week, then what else are they going to show?

£299 for the box doesn't seem too bad though.

well, all the movies will be in hd, as the native resolution for movies
has been higher then regular tv for decades.

But badly worn out as Sky play them over and over and over!

We've all seen reviews like " This DVD was a disappointment, They could have
cleaned it up for an old 70's show but it looks like they just transferred
the movie straight to DVD from tape"

We can expect much the same of Sky.
