All for nothing?

The volte face by the nation's terrestrial broadcasters over launching high-definition channels on Freeview continues. First they said it couldn't be done without being gifted more spectrum after switchover. Then this week they discovered that they could all launch HD channels using existing Freeview spectrum, as Ofcom had argued. In the light of that announcement, what's happened to their high-profile lobby group HDforAll - a coalition formed by the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Five, as well as Toshiba, Panasonic and Dixons? It seems as if the campaign might be quietly winding itself up. How else - other than an inexplicable massive website crash - to explain the fact that ewww.hdforall.org.uk appears to be shut down. ERROR 404: NOT FOUND! bleats the website. Cached web pages are now the only trace of this once vociferous lobby group.
