I would not pretend to have the answer, but I feel the current system is not fair for all viewers. I'm not sure if I want to look at a Guardian link.

i agree that it isn't fair for all users and i wouldn't want to dismiss payg tv out of hand because that may very well be the way tv goes in future years ,but at the moment with digital tv in it's infancy (i think it's fair to say that)i think the stability of the BBC should be maintained in a very volatile and commercial market
