You my friend live in cuckoo land. I was not "whining" as you claim, but merely stating the facts. There are a significant number of channels down and have been for many days. So it is logical that they sort out providing a reliable service for the SD channels before wasting time and bandwidth on HD channels. In reality it is unlikely that this service will ever be robust enough to provide a reliable HD service, by virtue of what it is. This is my personal opinion and since I live in a democracy and have paid my dues, I have the right to offer it.
*** Just done a quick check on the English language channels. I have not checked the shopping channels or the News/Weather channels or Music video channels, but I counted 46 Channels down. All the UK sports channels down, plus other premium sports channels down.****
