i was commenting on his claim we all spent thousands on our HD sets yes mine is only a 720p set and i agree, HD isnt as great as people make out and i certainly wouldn't pay more for it. still would watch the HD version of a show if its being broadcast though.

all i was suggesting in the rest of my post is that VM are trying to fit their opinion around the fact that they cant provide it anyway! we all know they dont have the room for more HD channels, especially after the mpeg2 choice.
