Are the BBC and the rest not paying the owners of the terrestrial broadcasting infrastructre to carry their channels?
Are people suggesting that commercial BSkyB should subsidise the BBC?

No I think they are suggesting a rather more level playing field for all.After all thee and me have already paid for the BBC content so why should BSkyb also be paid from the money we both paid to the BBC.
If and when BSkyb become a public broadcaster then maybe they should be getting taxes payers money.
