Sky HD shows in 720p resolution and no it's not worth £200 for the box and an extra £10 a month.
Pretty soon, more and more HD channels will start airing and prices will drop due to competition.
HD is a new technology at the moment so prices are high but they will fall.
I predict in 10 years time, standard definition (476i/576i) will no longer exist and all channels will show in 1080p or upwards.
I can understand the cost of new box but cant see what the monthly cost is for, they show old films on sky movies HD how does that work?
Think ill spend my money elsewhere, HD DVD player perhaps?
No, buy a Blu Ray player. HD DVD is dying a death.
Warner Bros, as said earlier, have just gone completely Blu Ray. Expect others such as Universal Studios to follow.
Blu Ray discs hold 25 gb as opposed to 15gb of HD DVD.
From my experience though, HD DVD picture quality is just as good as Blu Ray. Toshiba HD players will drop in price soon and it's an affordable way to get into HD viewing.
