I've been reading the forums for quite a while now and have noticed a distinct increase of people noticing lower quality broadcasts on Sky HD (lower bitrates on movies etc) and poorer quality transmissions compared to earlier ones of the same material (ie Resident Evil Apocalypse was much better quality when broadcast a few months back compared to now) and had a thought...
As sky tend not to listen to the smaller voices and single smaller complaints i thought it might be a good idea to get someone on board who can possibly write an article on this raising everyone's concerns. I was thinking of basically asking The Register to possibly look into it and raise public awareness on this issue. Maybe if enough voices shout together then sky may take more notice.
I only bring this up as i am about to get Sky HD installed and am concerned that sky may be lowering the quality to save on bandwidth and therefore costs and it is the consumer who is missing out. We pay a premium for this service and expect it to be of quality that is higher than is being produced at this time.
Don't want to cause any trouble at all i'm just interested of getting the full HD experience that we pay good money for.
Any thoughts on this??
Cheers guys.
