As someone else on this forum once suggested, they could even think about renaming SD as "Low Definition" (perhaps abbreviated to e.g. "LowDef" on EPG channel names etc, as "LD" would not be inherently self-explanatory) to really emphasise to non-HD-enabled viewers that what they are watching is the inferior product.
