Why Wimbledon HD not shown through Starhub?

The Wimbledon championships is yet another golden platform to show off Starhub's new HD service.

WHY IN THE WORLD is Starhub not showing Wimbledon HD during our Starhub trials? The content is already licensed from ESPN, does it cost so much extra to put it into channel 300 or 301???

Probably because subscribers are not paying to view them unlike world cup. Sad case.

Yes it is sad. Starhub should have considered all the implications of HD. They do not seem to be very prepared for it, unlike the BBC with SkyHD... who're full steam ahead.

This is one thing which will enable them to do something new and exciting. They should now bring in consultants to help them in their HD planning, to gain more subscribers, more revenue and better profits.
