The BBC has nothing to do with it. If you want to watch any "live TV" you have to have a TVL. It really is that simple.

Whether I think it is fair or not is completely beside the point. Unless, of course, the point is "paying for things you don't use" in which we're back full-circle to the arguments previously stated in this thread. So I won't bother doing so again here.

However, I will add this. Of those 200 channels you mention, how many do you regularly watch? And is it fair that you have to pay for all the ones you don't watch just to be able to watch the ones you want to?
