    Cheers Mugger. I know its only an extra €5 a month, but is it worth it for bbc HD?

    BBC HD on the value pack but what pack are you on?

    Think it maybe the value pack, there's about 80+ channels

    Well if it is the value pack you just get BBC HD.

    BBC HD isn't going to be as good from Wednesday with the launch of BBC1HD which it seems won't be carried on UPC, so any BBC1 content that was previously on the channel won't be from Wednesday.

    The big advantage of going for the HD box is the extra recording capacity, think it's 80 hours on the standard box as opposed to 144 (I think) SD hours on the HD box

    The HD choice on UPC is pretty poor.
