My TV package is via Virgin media which includes Sky Sports and BT Sports.
BT Sports games are in HD (free) but my Sky Sports is `normal` quality.
Has anyone else noticed the pic quality difference between Sky and any other channels showing matches?.
I`m pretty sure that they turn the quality down to encourage customers to pay even more by having to get their HD package. Several times I have watched a game on another non HD channel then switched over to SS1, the difference in pic quality is always more than noticable.

I dont have it but NOW TV makes a lot of sense, pay for view rather an have ALL the dross of many games I am never going to watch like Champions League, I have no interest in seeing top four English clubs playing Carlos Kickabouts and the chance of us playing in it are remote. My only interest is West Ham, I dont even watch the other games on Motd!
