The point that is being made is that less than a third of sky customers are on HD (I believe it's even less on VM). What proportion of the UK viewing population are sky + vm customers? A relatively small proportion of the UK viewing population are into pay TV and even less interested in HD.
For Sky to have not much less than a third of it's entire customer base paying £120 a year extra for HD when it hasn't even been around for 5 years is nothing short of amazing and clearly indicates HD is a massive growth area and any operator who dosen't take HD seriously will pay a very high price.

Thankfully VM and Sky both realise the potential of HD.

I didn't really get HD myself until we got a 46" set, now I definitely get it!

I know lots of people who do not post on forums passingbat ,friends people at work ect ect not many are that interested in HD though,and before mersey70 comes on twisting my words and trying to bait i am not saying just becuase people i know are not interested nobody else is.
There was smiley on the end of my post. It was a joke. Feel free to put me on ignore if you consider that baiting.
