VM may think that having the "in the clear" Sky Sports News channel in such a prominent position on the EPG may drive new Sky Sports subscriptions. What other reasons can they have for putting a minority channel right in front of the premium channels?
No it's channels that drive subscription numbers not just HD ones imo. The channel numbers matter not one jot to me am glad to say.

Doesn't seem so no. I am paying £7 per month for Sky Movies....
