Where is your evidence that the public want the BBC to change its funding model, as this is what you are saying the public wants?
Sorry, but your reply was too brief to be clear about the question you were asking.

I was specifically referring to the Ofcom decision not to allow the BBC to keep more shows on the i-Player for more than 30 days.There appears to be public demand for that, but Ofcom are concerned about the implications of that in terms of unfair competition. That would not be a problem if the BBC could operate more as a commercial company.

We might get a lot less political correctness as well if the BBC were not controlled so much by government.

Of course the public want change. They want an i-Player that competes with the internet, and that is also what the BBC is striving for.
