Erm - are you saying, Denphone, that you are happy with HD? Not sure from your post, but then again, I am an Old Boy and may be missing things....
On my TV l just don't see any difference between SD or HD channels.

Right, moving quickly on to the 'coming soon' stream, I dropped into our Virgin Media shop in Reading on Saturday and made a bit of a fuss about the TIVO box and the need to get Lovefilm and that sort of stuff on it. After all, the latest TVs have this already.

The guy told me that they were expecting Lovefilm to be added to the options within the next three months. He seemed fairly confident about this, but I guess that time will tell.

Now, the thing is, if Lovefilm allow us to get box sets of Boardwalk Empire, Mildred Pierce and Mad Men when it comes, who needs Sky Atlantic?

If this is VM's strategy, I applaud it!! And I welcome VM to the Ideal World scenario of the Old Boy!
Yes it would be great if they did get Lovefilm.
