Isn't the ITV HD issue tied up with getting the Competition Commission to change the formula which regulates advertising rates to ITV1 ratings?

ATM, if ITV launched ITV HD and ITV+1, these would technically count as separate channels and ITV stand to lose ad dosh if lots of people switch to them, even though they would (presumably) carry the same programmes and ads as ITV1.

I read somewhere this is supposed to be sorted 'later this month' (February), we may then see ITV HD (and ITV1+1) appear fairly quickly on Sky and Virgin.
