Is Sky HD any good and is it worth it?

NO! You pay a lot for nothing, buying the box is only a part of the money-eating-clause, you have to re-sign for another 12months, and pay an added extra on top of your normal package just to purchase what little amount of HD channels there are on Sky. The price will drop soon and more channels will be added, but until then don't waste your time with it. PACE are releasing a HD Free-view Box which, in my books, is bound to be a winner - a one-off payment of £200 for the box and then all the free channels in HD. Sky's HD box is around £200-£299 alone without the monthly contract. Unless you have a HDTV you won't notice a bit of difference though. Needless to say, within a few months you will be able to purchase HDTV's with built-in HD Free-views.

no i have got it don't bother its c***p i have had 3 updates and sky out twice it still don't work well they are out again tomorrow so fingers crossed i have had the box three weeks

Its good if you have a HD TV, but now the world cup is over there won't be much to watch. Leave it a while and the price will come down.

I have heard people say that they cant see much difference between HD TV and normal digital TV, but if you can afford it have it.

whats sky doing to us? i dont have a hd compatable tv and i will need one by 2009, the date they plan for everyone to be hd. Im not changing over to very last minute.
