I am certain way less than 5% of the movies TCM shows have HD transfers. You are correct a few show up on HDNet Movies and there were a few on HD DVD and a couple on Blu-ray, but TCM couldn't even start with one true HD movie a day at this point. I hope it happens but I will continue to watch TCM even if it doesn't happen. Great movies in the original aspect ratio make that the best cable channel ever in my opinion.
