Why should I pay extra for HD channels? I subscribe to the Premium channels Plus I pay extra for a V+ box.
Also terrestrial HD channels BBC, ITV etc. should be free anyway.

The terrestrial HD channels undoubtedly will be free, just as BBC HD is today.
It is up to you whether you pay to receive Sky's HD channels, you don't have to take them. Sky have every right to charge for these, but I understand they are considering dropping that charge.

Thanks for the information, Horizon. I knew that 15 HD channels by Christmas was too good to be true!
