‘HD Ready’ is a Europe-wide standard designed to made HD technology less confusing.

Full HD TVs have screen resolutions of 1080p and can output at least 24 frames per second.

Freeview is free digital terrestrial TV. FreeSat is a free digital satellite TV service, which gives you HD programming from people like the BBC without having to pay for a subscription to a service like Sky. You need a dish to receive Freesat but not Freeview. For more information see the Freeview site or the Freesat site.
