Advantages: High definition beats standard hands down

Disadvantages: Don't provide enough mainstream entertainment

We got Free Sat HD with our Panasonic TV about 3mths ago and have loved every minute of it and BBC HD is worth getting.

I hate cynics who both have never watched HD films or TV and claim that tube televisions are better. First off HD TV is a hell of a lot better than normal BBC 1 etc... and the reason most other standard def channels look 'pixelated' is because a newer LCD TV is a lot better in terms of picture quality so picks it up where a standard tube TV would not.
So BBC HD is it worth it? Hell yes. If you pay for HD shame on you but at least you have it so good on you.
BBC HD is good for the odd program or two like Friday Night with Jonathon Ross but a lot of the programs are wildlife documentaries that I agree look stunning in HD, I just don't like those kinds of programs. I think a better idea would be to broadcast everything that appears on BBC One in high definition like the News which I would definitely watch.

Overall I would recommend getting any HD channel because the increase in picture quality is amazing. BBC HD just now needs to focus on more mainstream TV scheduling such as the news etc...

Summary: Great HD channel from the BBC
