Mostly great product, appalling management. Lots of people, myself included, begrudge paying the TV tax to a company that can produce the world's most watched TV show, and the best online catch up service possibly anywhere, and be so poor at monetising them that they continually moan about being underfunded.
Agree with your opening sentence.
Presumably your other two paragraphs are suggesting that the BBC charge a lower licence fee for non-licence payers to use iPlayer a bit like the black-and-white licence was cheaper than the colour one or some kind of PPV?
