Really don't understand why they launched it then considering most Sky subscribers could watch the free matches on Sky One in HD as well.

Freesat viewers?

Sky subscribers without the HD pack couldn't get them in HD on Sky One either.

I thought Sky got rid of the HD charge for all but Sports/Movies a few years ago?

No, they cut it (in half or near enough half I believe?) when Movies/Cinema went HD inclusive. Still have to buy it if you want HD as standard outside of the movie channels.
