American HD Households Will Reach 65.7% By 2012

65.7% of US multichannel households will have either high-def cable or high-def satellite subcriptions by 2012, according to a recent study by SNL Kagan. That's a huge increase from an 18.8% HD penetration number for 2007, but with 1 in 3 homes now having at least one HDTV, networks are under pressure to provide more HD content. We wouldn't doubt they hit 2012's expected numbers by the last half of 2010.
