If the BBC keep making good quality programmes, they will have nothing to worry about. As part of the deal, the government should allow the Beeb to venture into areas that it is not allowed to at present (eg premium TV for first run shows, advertising as an alternative for those who do not wish to subscribe, etc).
The whole arrangement needs to be far more flexible, and with government grants available to all TV services providing good quality public service broadcasting.
