It states 720p on NOW TV, Roku and YouView boxes, Windows 7 (or later), iOS and Android.
1080i on compatible Sky boxes.
I'm pretty sure 5.1 is available via Sky boxes but the others could be just stereo. Obviously you would get 5.1 via your physical copy which comes through the post although being it's DVD for now only SD picture.
I can understand the thinking behind Sky's reluctance to make Now TV 1080p although it should be a given with purchases considering all the other purchase options available have it as standard and digital sales aren't exactly cheap are they. You'd like to think with all the new boxes having 1080p as an option that they'll introduce it at some stage.
