New HD channel on SIRIUS!
12 Jan, 2010
From 11 January 2010 a new HD channel, TV2 HD Norway, started broadcasting via SIRIUS. This means that Viasat satellite HDTV subscribers in Norway can view a wide range of TV2 programmes in crystal clear high resolution quality.
The HDTV development in Europe is going fast and we believe that 2010 will be the real breakthrough. Drivers are the Olympic games and the World Soccer Championship which will be broadcasted in HD. At present there are 104 HDTV channels broadcasting on the ASTRA and SIRIUS satellites and there are more to come in the near future. The ASTRA group is the most important HD platform in Europe featuring content from leading broadcasters.
