All movies are SD to begin with HD coming. My guess would be they need to increase the capacity of the OD servers at the headends to roll out HD.

Not sure however there is a decent selection , let's not forget up until a few months back all Sky entertainment content was SD only , when I first tried an HD movie it took 5 minutes before it was ready to play on 10mb connection that's now down to a minute.

Every headend would need a capacity increase I believe, that's a big, expensive job I guess.

Yes , Sky Anytime works like this , say An Idiot Abroad 2 Ep 1 airs on Sunday its usually added to Anytime the following day , if you have Sky Anytime+ there are usually 3-4 episodes kept so say 1-4 and after a certain time EP 1 will expire if you catch my drift.
