Just wondering how many people here tuned into the new GO! channel for the first time this evening?

What are peoples thoughts on the new channel??

I'm certainly enjoying the 2 new channels so far ONE HD and GO!....they add a heap more variety to my daily viewing!!

Great to have a new channel Plus they are going to have seinfeld re-runs

Just wish it was GO HD instead of SD...

What's the point of SD channels? Is HD too costly, to have all HD channels?

Either way it is a step in the right direction

I think it's more to do with "bandwidth" (for lack of a better word)...each network only has so much to play with....most of the HD you see at the moment is just a tweaked-up version of SD anyway...it's not true HD.

In the short-term the HD channels (except 10/Southern Cross) will be used to duplicate the main SD channel.

You have to keep in mind that this is all costing a fortune at the moment (particulalrly in regional areas)...from the initial digital roll-out (setting up each transmitter), meanwhile analogue is still running as well and then buying extra programs....all to hopefully attract viewers back from Pay-TV or the net.

Every new channel is a historic moment.....we probably take it for granted a bit. Before OneHD when was the last new channel added to free-to-air TV in this country??? Probably SBS for most people in the mid 80's to early 90's....so it isn't something that happens every day!!

The new SD channel was pretty blocky so they must be broadcasting the new channel in a pretty low bit rate Hope they fix that up.
