TomAckroyd: SKY might consider it if it meant not losing subscribers to Freeview. "Watch Lost AND the rugby in HD!".
And Freeview isn't "free" (at the moment) - you have to fork out for a fancy HTPC setup, or a decoder, or (later) a PVR, or (much later) a Freeview-capable TV. Only then is it free.
and
Within the next year it will be reasonable to expect that most large screen TV's sold in NZ will all have DVB-T tuners built in. The need for the likes of Sky to duplicate the HD programming becomes worthless since 75% of the population which will more that likely increase to 87%) have access to a digital terrestrial signal.
My views (except when I am looking out their windows) are not those of my employer.

TomAckroyd:
The reason people have Sky now, in addition to analogue FTA, is a combination of getting a better picture and having access to more channels, including exclusive subscription channels.
Tom.
