I've been told that VM get their HD feeds by fibre and SD feeds via the satellite.
Can't remember if it was an SD or a HD channel that I was watching on VM last night, but the ticker advice for Sky customers appeared at the top (think it was Discovery Science).
I don't think that this has a HD variant, so perhaps this explains why the ticker is being shown to VM customers??
Could this mean that for technical reasons, as opposed to the Sky/Discovery dispute itself, that we will lose access to the SD Discovery channels from the 1st February??
Longer term, if something isn't sorted out, given that 70% of the Discovery audience is said to be via Sky, could we see the channels pulled due to not being financially viable?
