Cheers for the update MB.

With regards to capacity free'd up from analogue cessation, back in ITV Digital days I was under the impression that 1 analogue terrestrial channel used up about as much spectrum as 1 DTT multiplex (which could then carry 6 SD channels, now 8 or 9 I think). Does this logic carry over to Cable?

If it does, we should be due a rather large influx of channels, surely?
