Yes I agree but "the answer" on this thread says that all channels are HD and that's not true


@CPR17  The "answer" is correct.  SD is no longer supported and all channels on the streaming platform are HD or better.  If you want UHD that is an add-on at additionnal cost.

I'd suggest a complication is that a few of those channels still carry a percentage of SD content because in some (usually vintage) cases there's just not anything else available.

 

It's probably more accurate to say there's no longer a supplementary charge for non-free-to-air HD channels.

Re: Sky Stream Query

Here is a more comprhensive list of channels available on Glass/Stream. As you can see the SD channels are clearly marked. But the SD channels are in a far higher quality than you'll find on Freeview/Freesat because less compression is used, (there isn't a need to fit channels into a limited space as there is on Freeview/Satellite), so the picture looks far sharper and crisper in comparison.
