We need a state broadcaster, it's output is unique as its not influenced by profit/advertisers, it really would be a case of you'd miss it when its gone.

Sky basic package which includes sports mix (more sport in a week than BBC show in a month) is £22 pm - when I went to school this was less than 2 times 12 not more than 3 times.
It may be a steal in your opinion, I think what people are saying is that they should be able to choose whether to pay or not as they have with sky or virgin.
Personally, I am unsure if I would or not, there are a few things I watch on BBC but would it justify £12pm - that is the question.
Anyway, getting back on topic is there a definitive answer to the ITV blackout on virgin?
