General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
Amazing how some object to paying £172 for the annual license fee, but are willing to pay out far more for diffrent monthly package satelite deals to Sky etc to show their programmes which include advertisements and in many cases are no better than what are produced by the BBC or indeed other freeview channels.
If the license fee keeps the BBC Television and Radio programme free from advertising and subscription paying television, no moaning about it from me and I suspect the majority of viewers.
No wonder Sky can pay the Football Association £4.67 billion to show coverage of Premirship football maches in addittion to other drama and sports contracts when they are getting income both from advertising and exhorbitant package deal subscriptions.
