I don't understand it the question in your last post. Was that press release before or after Sky Atlantic was announced?

That's contrary to VM's press release and DF's comments. It all depends how you read the Press Release but I couldn't possibly imagine VM would negotiate purely on the portfoio of channels available at the time when securing a carriage deal, I would imagine some sort of option for future channels would be included. Or maybe they did, again who knows. I think Sky News HD was around when the deal was done but i'm happy to be correcetd on that.
Do you actually have a BSkyB press release confirming it, not press reports.
Again you may well be right, I don't know.

I wonder if Sky are classing it as Premium? But giving it for "free" to their own customers?

Maybe, we will find out when it joins the Variety Pack in the summer.
There is nothing in BSkyB's press releases to suggest that though. A few HD channels are 'bonus' channels on Sky including ITV's.
