There may not be that much of a difference, depending on the TV on which you are viewing the satellite or cable. Based on where you live, reception of either the cable or the satellite might be better, but that's a reception issue, not a picture quality problem.

If after the digital transition shouldn't ALL tv channels be HD then why do cable and satellite charge more for HD?

I'll address the first of these two questions: Post-transition all US over-the-air broadcasts are digital. That refers to the modulation technique used to place a signal on a carrier wave. High Definition refers to the picture resolution, as does Standard Definition. A High Definition broadcast will always be digital, but a digital broadcast will not always be High Definition. A DVD will deliver a digital picture in SD. A Blu-Ray DVD delivers a digital picture in HD. The same concept applies to broadcasters. The FCC requires digital broadcasts, but does not require that they be HD. The cable provider I use does not charge for HD channels.
