Do you remember when Sky launched their Digital satellite TV service and their promise of perfect digital picture quality compared to the analogue satellite TV service?
I'm sure that at the time the picture quality of the Standard Digital (SD) was more than adequate.
Recently Sky have been relentlessly promoting their High Definition (HD) service and have been telling us how it is so much better then the SD service.
It is true that SD now looks completely crap and when you watch any football match you will see that the players have a pixel halo around their bodies as they run across the pitch. But in reality the SD picture does not have to look so crap and it is more likely that Sky have reduced the picture quality of SD to make it look even more inferior to their HD service.
The irony is that Sky have reduced the picture quality of SD by increasing the compression and the allocated bandwidth is reduced leaving more bandwidth for HD.
My Crusade
My crusade is for Sky to restore the picture quality of the SD satellite TV service to the best possible quality.
