While listening to the news bulletin on the car radio I heard that the Clipsal 500 V8 race was on today. So, when I got home I flicked on the box to see that Prime (a rural Seven affiliate) was showing the V8s on its SD channel. The blokey 7Mate wasn't showing it. I find this quite extraordinary. Why have HD channels if they aren't going to maximise the benefits for the viewers? The V8s is a premium product for the Seven Network. So why waste it on SD? And the picture quality is quite ordinary, too.
