Television
Digital Free-To-Air television is available in Australia and they also have a number
of High-Definition channels also on the Free-To-Air service. The current
timeline for a complete switchover to digital television is for it to be completed
by 2013. The Australian Government has a dedicated site on theDigital Switchover
If Free-To-Air isn't for you or you had Sky in the UK, then Foxtel is what your looking for. Foxtel offer
the same kind of services as Sky (they are the same company!) including IQ (Sky+)
and IQ2 (Sky+ HD). As a guide, a complete HD service including IQ2 from
Foxtel will set you back around $130 per month (approx. £65), but this does not
include installation (sometimes free if you get a promotion) and the initial cost
of the IQ2 box (currently $200)
