I would probably spend a lot more time - enough to justify the cost - infront of TV if I lived in the far north. But I don't. There is acost/quality threshold in entertainement and HD is on the wrong sideright now (Image quality AND content quality). DVB-S and/or DVD areplenty enough for us. And where I live going to the movies is cheap (thewhole family of four for less than 20€) and we meet other people theretoo! And the cinema is about 250 meters from home...
For me HD is one of the least exciting technological progresses ever.Digital video is "good enough" for most needs. I wish more money wasspent producing quality content - that is the weakest link right now.
What was really exciting was finding VDR and being able towatch/record/time shift UK TV from France with great enough image andsound quality - much much better than the analogical satellite we hadbefore.
