It takes alot more space on the transponders to broadcast High-Def.
They cannot put as many channels on a transponder with High- Def .
DirecTV I believe just launched another satellite so they can add more channels in the next few months. VOOM right now offers the most true high-def channels. I think DISH NETWORK is trying to buy them out. The race is on, so you you are safe in going high-def. The channels are coming.
