HD Freeview
“Broadcasters … along with manufacturers … have begun lobbying UK regulator Ofcom to guarantee bandwidth on the Freeview digital TV system for HD broadcasts … Now, we’d note that there are plenty of channels we’d happily ditch to make room for HD … HDforAll appears to want to avoid that particular debate, preferring to push Ofcom to ensure free-to-air HD TV has a future. While the group didn’t say as much explicitly, it’s clear they want Ofcom to give them a place at the table no matter what. Given the 9m homes have Freeview receivers, and the system has been promoted so strongly as the main way for consumers to ‘go digital’, it should get one.”
