I recon internet delivered Freeview would provide HD quality when it finally launches. With most things being HD as standard these days, anything but would be a waste of time. With some modern standards, it won't matter if you don't have a fiber connection or have low speeds, were not talking about UHD here.
With WRC23 (or 27 if they do eke it out for a few more years) will see the frequencies will go to the mobile operators in the interests of innovation. Traditional TV providers are stuck using outdated standards like MPEG2/4 and are increasingly inefficient, it's a shame the CE industry didn't invent swappable modules that improve the capabilities of the ability to process newer standards, which would prolong the life of the TV and reduce E-waste. I recall Samsung doing something similar to improve the TVs smart capabilities but could have perhaps gone further!
Perhaps the future lies in 5G broadcast.
