I believe the BBC could never survive as a private company. I also think they could never compete or be in direct competition with the likes of sky or VM who are service carriers. (as well as program makers in the case of sky)

The BBC could only offer what they currently offer, but they know that they currently have an unfair funding scheme where they are subsidised by those of us who don't have a choice.
How do you think a company funded by subscriptions works ? Of course the BBC will have to make a profit ,removing it's status as a public service which is obviously what you and other detractors of the licence fee want ,means it will be a private company
