Honestly, I don't know why some people are so fixated on the idea that the BBC could go subscription. Why is this? Is it because you see the licence fee as a sort of compulsory subscription, and therefore if the licence fee is bad it should simply be made voluntary?
Yes, why not?

If the BBC is so great, it will flourish in a subscription world, won't it...?
