And yeah even though the platforms are still SD production, the providers refuse to give any more SD coverage so all new boxes / set tops / satellites are all in HD only and with some like Sky 4K only.

Not sure about BT but Sky or Virgin should start investing in hardware manufacturers. If they get a say in what TVs even come off the manufacturing line (what definition) they should have a better idea of what to set as the lowest definition on their boxes...(per the market availability of older software / spec TVs).
Some don't like the costs involved with HD and don't see it offers them any value as they see it as too expensive and some don't like new technology and l am pretty sure they are others reasons as well.
