While broadcasters still show both, providers like Sky / BT (unsure about VM) all charge a standalone fee for HD (10 a month or something as I understand it) but without an option for SD that charge may go away which is good but in HD format will it still air well without warp / pixelation on a 10 only capable of SD / 720 calibration? Short of a run on sales of TVs, removing Standard definition of what is already filmed in HD might be a good idea for providers and manufacturers alike but cable and satellite providers may lost the ability to charge for it as a base benchmark rate.
