There’s no rational reason for Sky not to offer UHD if the infrastructure is up to it. The reality is that it’s not, and they don’t want the reputational risk that will go along with deploying an untested product.



100 meg? Yeah they could do that, and see how many potential customers they rule out in the process.
The customers with less would simply be told that they would only be able to access HD. They don't have to miss out on the service altogether.

I am sure that you may have a point on Italian broadband not being ready yet, which could explain matters.
