Additional content or a more polished picture? Only going to be one real winner there. HD is nice, but it's useless if you can't watch what you want to.

If I could choose, I'd have all Premiership games on ESPN/ESPN HD instead

They need to sort this red button thing out. Sky are being very sneeky and are out of order not passing it on to vm.

I wonder how much revenue Sky lose through their pigheadedness. I, and 2 of my mates, no longer subscribe to SS solely because of the red button.

Red button - I want the content and can live with it not being HD if the content I wanted was there at least

red button of course, its missing content vs hd same content slightly higher quality which many people cant even tell by the naked eye.

I doubt ESPN would be free on VM if that were to happen ;)

*Cough*

Speak for yourself dude it's pretty obvious to me when I'm watching SD and HD, even with upscaling.

I agree with Chrysalis on this one. Content is much more important to me. The improved pq HD brings is nice but it's not a dealbreaker.
