Debate is fine, but making rude and antagonistic posts (as he was a few days ago) about the the work of the people who take the time and trouble to collate and analyse this information isn't debating, it's simply stirring up trouble for the sake of it.
Over the years various people have either left the forum or stopped posting information because of similar behaviour, which spoils it for everyone else.
Upon checking as to why BBC1 HD has not been converted to 256-QAM. TSID 104 is still 64-QAM because it also carries VM services, such as The PVR EPG, VOD logos etc:

For some reason VM didn't convert any TSID that carries VM services.
There is now only one spare slot for an HD channel left at this point in time; on TSID 30 and this is where I assume GOLD HD will be going when it's added.
VM has TSID 23 to 35 currently configured for HD, with a current maximum of six HD channels per transport stream. Unless something changes, GOLD HD is the last HD channel that can be fitted onto the VM system.
Maybe they want to do some additional work on the system before maxing it out and adding GOLD HD and this is why it's taking a bit longer than the other channels??
If anyone wants to verify this information it is freely available on the digitalbitrate site linked to above.
