I think Bell is pretty well maxed out [bandwidth] on what HD channels they can offer. They're cutting some SD channels I hear in order to add a HD channel but I think they can broadcast 5 SD channels for every HD channel.
This is why they'll be bringing in a new HD system [mpeg4 I think] and will be adding another satellite . This will require new receivers [reportably this summer] which will make the current ones, 6200 + 9200, obsolete. It's going to be interesting.
