That would indicate that they are now able to carry these in HD or convert them to HD later on Freeview.

I wonder if we will be getting these free BT Sport channels in HD on VM?
Both the DTPS (DTT) and the TLCS (Cable and Satellite) licences have changed. VM has already carried the HD content over the Hidden BT Sport HD channel, which is set up to be switched in and out of channel 100.

I doubt that we will get the full time service, as it is just a rolling advert loop for BT services.
