We might be going round in circle with BBC threads. But worth pointing out it's £13 a month, for mostly unique quality content, plus all the extra non TV services. It compares very favourably with Sky/VM subs, who are mostly showing repeats/imported content or reruns of BBC stuff !

Sky/VM subs fund the costs of buying in and broadcasting the content. Freview is relatively cheap to physically broadcast.
