I'm very surprised at this, as Sky seem more interested in playing the numbers game with HD channels, rather than their individual popularity. As I believe that HD will be the norm for all channels in the future, perhaps this casts doubt on the long term future of Bio SD??

It might also suggest that Sky would rather close down an unprofitable HD channel, than try and make it profitable by letting VM have it to increase ad revenue and subscription costs.

Talk about cutting your nose to spite your face!

Well Richard nothing surprises me about Sky but then again others will sing its praises loudly.
