They might...there isn't enough ITV HD content to warrant a full blown channel. Even on freesat, ITV don't have a proper HD channel. There is the possiblity also that VM may use the same system as on freesat to access ITV HD, ie by pressing the red button. A hidden "channel" is currently testing which would facilitate this. Although I'm sure it would be available through the menus too.

VM announced last year that they intend to rebrand all/some of their channels along with the UKTV ones. Once all the UKTV channels have been done, I'd expect VM's own channels to be next. This channel launching just guarantees a position on the EPG for the "new" channel.

VM may be about to implement new security measures on their tv platform. Two hidden "channels" have appeared in the hidden engineering menus called:
Ch 510 - Security Fraud Message
Ch 808 - Yon have non-standard equipment
This may be a prelude to VM checking for dodgy stbs on their network and/or upgrading their conditional access system.
