All the more reason to move to streaming. Auction off the UHF spectrum and use the money to provide everyone in the UK access to a connection that will support streaming of content at a resonable price (we ain't talking 200mb connections here, just enough so they can still watch Corry.Emmerdale, Eastenders, big Brother and all the other important programmes of that ilk!)

Why pay money to satellite providers when the internet will provide the same if not more?
