No you're wrong. I am not aware of any broadcasters that only broadcast 
in HD. In the UK around 98% of all broadcasts are made in SD.

You're making statements without backing it up with data. The figures 
for SD TV's owner****p against HD capable TV's are stil vastly skewed in 
favour of SD. Oh and many HD TV's aren't even fully HD, most sold in the 
last few years only do 720p as opposed to fully HD compliant 1080p.
