[i.h]

Were there ever a significant amount of Freesat SD boxes? I don't remember them being on sale for long. I'd imagine there are more antique Sky boxes still in use (and it still surprises me that Sky were never aggressive about getting them changed over for subscribers, esp. as people upgraded to Q and there were probably tons of HD boxes floating around)

I suppose the rationale is that there is a considerable saving on transponder costs, or they can repurpose it for DVB-S2 and spread the load (I think there's currently one BBC HD region that sits on a Sky owned transponder?)
