BBC launches HD on a regular basis

Having upgraded their equipment, the BBC will soon be able to provide more HD services on a permanent basis.

The BBC Trust has initially approved that the BBC can run BBC HD for up to nine hours a day.

A new multiplex, to be launched in November 2009, will allow the BBC to start regular DVB-T2 HD broadcasts, eventually amounting to around six services altogether.

Eventually there could be calls for HD TV to become a pay TV model because the costs are high.

They have to provide HD TV across three platforms, DTT, cable and DTH, but this is all new ground there is no blueprint to follow and thus costs will increase and mistakes might happen.
