It is already possible to download content in HD, but rather than doing so through the Anytime section, Look Back is used.
If a programme has aired on an HD channel within the last 24 hours, and the rights are available, if you highlight it in the TV Guide and press the record button it will download the show in HD and allow you to play it back.
Bonus is available to subscribers with the PlatinumHD package so if you were to remove HD, the VOD channel would no longer be available.
HD is expected to arrive for more IP-delivered content later this year.

Sorry if 'later this year' was confusing, I just meant it's not expected to arrive by the end of next week, it will be later than that.
When we know we'll be sure to share the details with you!
