That was my reaction when the rumours of the price first circualted; I couldn't understand the price differential based on the actual cost of the drives. But then I had to face the fact that the increased charge for the 1TB is an 'extra functionality' charge.

As you say, Sky do it, as the normal HD drive cost is way lower than the 1TB one.
