Are you receiving HDTV, or just outputting PAL to a big monitor? How does your set-up deal with interlacing?
No, HDTV broadcasting hasn't really started yet over here (you can't buy DVB-S2 equipment yet), and everything is likely to be encrypted anyway. But some stations do send anamorphously encoded 16:9 material over PAL, which softdevice nicely transfers in 720p resolution over DVI. I'm transmitting 720p anyway all the time (setting is 16:9).
[1] BTW, even my current £5 sound card is an improvement on the onboard sound, which is too quiet!
This is why I use the SPDIF out :-)
