I'm gonna be dead straight with you here....if Sky want to start charging me for HD next year (I don't pay at the moment - I got it on free trial for a year) I'm gonna tell them to take it away.
It's not that the quality isn't there - it's absolutely stunning. It's just that for the limited channels and the repeated content, I wouldn't pay £10 per month for it at the moment. I know there is more on the way - but I can only go on what's there today.
Eventually most channels will just shift over to HD and we'll accept HD as the new SD....a bit like everyone got used to having colour television.
I'd hang fire if it was my money....if you're a football fan, who loves documentaries, live music and movies you could be persuaded I guess, but if you also have a family like mine that insists on Eastenders, Peppa Pig and the Simpsons, you'll £120 per year better off if you wait for a bit.

If you're multirooming your other Sky plus that'll be another £120 per year.....£240 for a hand full of channels.....I think Mr. Murdoch probably takes enough off you already doesn't he? It's a heavy bill when you factor in your licence etc.....
