HD and UHD

[Dafcno1]

Hi

I've got a UHD tv and want to be able to watch everything on UHD where possible.

Im currently getting charged the following per month

Sky HD £8

Sky Sports HD £2

UHD £4

Do I really need to pay all these to get UHD on Sporte and other programmes? In my simple world since I'm paying for UHD one or both of the other charges shouldn't apply?

Cheers

UHD is like an add-on and the HD subscription is required first.

Short answer is yes.

For clarity:

Sky HD is a prerequisite for UHD

Sky Sports HD, although listed separately, is part of the overall Sports subscription (and cannot be removed)

You already are, because the television set is upscaling all lower resolutions to UHD (otherwise most of the panel would be empty)

Native UHD content has an additional cost.
