So your answer is to force people to pay the tax even if they don't watch the BBC because by your way the BBC benefits because people watch other providers. Why should i be forced to have to pay for something i don't use just so YOU get it cheaper ?????
If the BBC is so good then it will still get subscribers however if people think there output is crap then they wont, and whose fault will that be. If that is the case then maybe they will start to produce good stuff unlike now where they don't give a crap because they are guaranteed a fortune in tax each year
