Another big thing that comes to mind with Freeview is how compressed it all is. I only found a handful of channels over a 2.0mb/s bit rate. (in fact most of these were on PSB1/BBC-A) In fact there are a couple channels on SDN running under 1.0mb/s! This obviously makes it look horrible, but especially with the bit-hungry MPEG-2.
SD is probably not the thing we have to ditch immediately, in my opinion, MPEG-2 needs to be ditched ASAP, especially for a platform that's more about quanity over quality.
