BT’s announced that they’ll be bringing High Definition Video on Demand to their BT Vision TV service by the end of Summer 2008.
Existing BT Vision set-top boxes are being updated throughout August 2008 to a new version of software, 1.2.14642.551, which supports the HD service as well as fixing a number of minor bugs.
Due to the amount of data needed for High Definition, you won’t be able to watch HD content streamed over your Broadband connection – instead, you select HD content from the on-screen list, and its downloaded onto the BT Vision box’s drive.
Pricing: Blockbuster movies will cost £4.95 each, with older films being priced from £2.95.
