Other progs that are HD come through in HD without the 'ticket'. Save yourself $15 - you can always buy it later of you really think it is worth it.	linw (53)

Free to air channels are not quite HD but close (to free up some band witch for their other HD offerings). Is it a rip off to have to pay extra for it? Yes. Would I be without it now? No way. See this thred re: Free Sport/Movies/MySky for a year. www.geekzone.co.nz - I pay $58 per month for mysky with sport/movies and HD ticket. You can send remote recordings to the box, but it does it over the satellite rather than over the internet.	Alex B (15479)
