HD should be free to everyone - not included, or extra - just free. Jeez it's been around long enough now. I think the technology upgrades to create, broadcast and feed HD will have long been paid for. Sky are dictating this "HD costs extra" scenario and are thus ripping the @rse out of it to make money from literally nothing.
I still joke about Nicam stereo being free when it launched, but the reality was similar to HD.
If FTA channels can provide HD free - then why not the rest? And why are carriers such as Sky and VM getting away with charging to access them??
Down with this sort of thing...!
