Yes it is, so the multiroom cost drops $15 and gives you the HD ticket.

I could be wrong, but I thought there were 2 scenarios as follows:

A). existing Sky decoder - upgrade to MySky and get the existing decoder as a MultiRoom free for 3 months, then have to pay normal cost of MySky and multiroom; or

B). existing Multi-Room - upgrade to MySky (one decoder only), still pay for multiroom, but get the HDi ticket for free (unlimited)

I don't remember seeing the multiroom cost drop once we upgraded to MySky, but the HD ticket is certainly not costing us.

So you can get HD from the movie or sport channels. On the HDi sky box.

The cost of multiroom does not go down to $15 if you decide to keep your old box, but the HD ticket is thrown in for free (so you get what would normally be $35 per month - multiroom and HD - for $25)

If you don't have Sky Movies or Sport, then the HD ticket is wasted - TV1,2 and 3 are HD on the MySkyHDi without the HD ticket.
