I do expect the HD count to increase this year, so XL customers should have 20-25 HD channels by the end of this year I guess, purely my guess on the number but gut feeling of where we will end up at.

The drive towards on demand HD also adds another dimension to this discussion. Say for example, VM can establish higher volume of HD movies through further agreements (using Tivo Internet link?), then who needs Sky Movies as an example. Sports though will always be a unque for Sky, they will defend that no matter what against other routes to access Sport HD.
