To be fair to OFCOM in their more recent report on this they have noted this and I think they are proposing to force sky to make both the HD and the red button content available at a 'reasonable' price. Its just annoying its taking so long to get to the point where this is agreed (probably due to sky filibustering?). If we do get a deal for the HD and red button channels before then it not be because sky particularly want to do the deal but that they see the sword of ofcom setting the price hanging over them.
