(I wonder if Sky have redeployed their old SD production kit on the red button feeds? Would make sense)
Would it be possible to say have a mix , so maybe two red button games on match choice in HD with the remainder in SD , at least people would then be able to see the game on the channel in HD plus two more , just wondering my tech knowledge of these things is limited
