Do Virgin customers want more HD channels and my answer is yes.

IMHO only certain content warrants HD at the moment.

Really cannot fathom why anyone would say no, unless they were blindly defending their inactive masters;)

Can we have a guess on who voted no?

I said no because on my 32" because SD is good enough for me, if I had a 46" I may change my mind.

You don't need a poll. Most customers don't want HD, but a significant minority do.

Well its a very significant minority then with nearly 40% of Sky's and Virgin having HD enabled boxes and double that percentage with HD TV's plus the increasing amount of Freeview HD boxes being sold as well.

I would have thought that as it is VM policy to hold on to their high value customers that HD would have been a priority to hold on to these customers.

Shouldn't the question be "Are Virgin customers willing to pay more for extra HD channels"?

We have already debated that to death on another thread.

But we are talking about Virgin customers - why bring in Sky?

btw, can I ask where you got your stats from, please?

Because you don't have an HD STB?

"HD-ready TV sets are now in six in ten UK homes, with a third of homes receiving HDTV channels"
