Same as with the license if it worried me that much I'd get rid of it and go down the on demand route.

But then I don't watch much tv if any that isn't on the on demand channels.

Personally at the moment Natalie is the reason I'll end up keeping it after the BT youview contract is up. £6.06 a month isn't bad value to keep her happy
That's fine but i cannot watch a live rugby match on Sky unless i pay the tv tax i have no choice in the matter. Its a tax that then goes to a provider who had nothing to do with broadcasting that live service by sky, does not pay the wages of the people involved in showing that service. So why should the BBC be allowed to profit from a broadcast they had nothing at all to do with ??????

Yes

The BBC is a commercial service and it should be made to make its way in the world like any other large company would do. Schools are funded from real taxes not the highway robbery that is the TV tax.
