Now, if some of the broadcasters would only stop pretending that HD is somehow premium content, and get some of that out from behind Sky's paywall, things would really start to look bright and cheerful in the world of FTA satellite.

Yes, HD is becoming the norm as opposed to a premium offering- but this doesn't seem to be filtering down.
If you are on VM too, you can now access the UKTV HD channels over Christmas at no extra charge providing you are on M+ and above.
