I said less than 100 hours, which is the quoted figure. This obviously compares very well to Sky's big fat 0 in that department, but then again if it's catch up content you want Sky is ahead (shockingly) on that as they have a barebones anytime HD offering whereas we're still waiting for (a) iPlayer HD (b) this C4 HD stuff (c) ITV HD content (probably not likely to include any catch up). I don't think my comparisons are unfair as I compare both linear HD channels, other HD services such as movies and both types of HD vod - catch up or archived.

Virgin Media obviously wins hands down and several trips round the block if we're talking SD VOD.
