At last Sky viewers in France and all over Europe are able to access true High Definition television that gives you up to 5 times the picture sharpness & quality of normal television. You will experience lifelike images so real it's like your television is a crystal clear window on the world. Viewers in Japan & America have enjoyed HDTV so much over the past few years that when they switch over to normal TV they switch their television off due to the amazing quality that High Definition brings you. This is a television revolution that will be bigger then the transition from black & white to color possibly even the creation of TV itself.

To get the full benefit of this technology your TV screen must be a digital one, having a resolution of minimum 1920 x 1080 pixels and accepting digital video flux via a HDMI port.
