How much of Sky Arts 2 (or 1, for that matter) actually is HD? Not much from what I can see.
Wonder how long before Sky News goes HD? I watched US news channels in HD last year and it really is jarring when they cut from the HD studio to crap quality SD footage.
I think there's an actual limit to the amount of channels that can go HD, and Sky's fast approaching it - it'll be years before all those repeats channels (UKTV etc) can even consider going HD. The limit would be around 50 by my calculation - the main absentees at the moment being BBC1-4, ITV 1-2, Five, E4, More4 and Film4. Other than those, there's not enough HD programming around to fill schedules for channels.
