Again i am not sure where u will get ur HD indian content..

Even movies in india are not in HD..

Omni TV broadcasts some times 3 month old hindi movies OTA and even those are not in HD..

At best u can get DVD quality which is less than HD..

Even Up-conversion is still not hd, it is all a illusion..

You are right , compression is always there. Question is how do you deliver the signal. In our case majority of the content at source is native HD and broadcast would be in HD. As you rightly pointed out, there are two ways of treating source in SD:
Convert it at asset point before signal broadcast = Expensive but near native HD quality.

Convert it at broadcast transmission point = Cheaper but image quality is poorer.

Let subscriber convert it at receiver point = Sucks but then you can afford to be uncaring about your customers if you are the only service in town

I will definitely mail you an invitation as soon as we start our test transmissions to get your view on the quality and improvements.
