But you need an HDTV compatible set, and an HDTV broadcast, so at the moment it is not something you really need to be jumping on the bandwagon of as it is establishing a distribution platform with little to distribute.
HDTV will be great for sports, but I don't see the BBC upgrading the recording of 'enders to HDTV for a while, though I imagine this will be one of the easier to do as the sets are so permanent and fixed. HDTV is going to dramatically increase the cost of set build as cheap craftsmanship will be highlighed in the recorded picture, wheras now the detail is just not captured.
