Sky Q1 2010

From MediaGuardian:
The popularity of BSkyB's high-definition services has outstripped analysts' expectations with 428,000 households signing up for Sky+ HD in the first quarter, a 76% year-on-year increase, helping average revenue per user to top £500 for the first time.
BSkyB, which today announced that Sky News will launch in HD on 6 May to coincide with election coverage, hit analyst forecasts by adding 62,000 net new customers in the three months to the end of March.

At the very end of Sky's latest advert for HD showcasing the World Cup, it states in small print at the bottom of the screen that BBC HD & ITV HD are available without subscription.

Nothing different to VM with a VHD box, both available on the M-TV package FREE
