Next year where will it be and where will VM be in adding HD channels. Right now and for the next 7 months does VM need more HD channels especially as they have HD OnDemand? In 2009 do they need them? More likely.

I seem to recall reading there are 10 million HDTVs in the UK now, so a heck of a lot of people have them. It's just that most don't yet have a way to watch HD TV broadcasting on them. I'm sure they're enjoying their Xbox 360s and PS3s in high-def though.
Virgin only get away with not offering HD because a) Sky HD is incredibly expensive, and b) Virgin is very cheap, so people are prepared to overlook it's shortcomings. Sky will fix the price eventually, but will Virgin be ready to enhance their HD output 20x by then?
