Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2018)

I just worry that our media will be dominated by American tech giants who ultimately don't have out interests at heart.

Without turning this into a major discussion about the license fee, but if the BBC were privatised and ITV and Ch4 allowed to merge, then if we're lucky, we might just have two British broadcasters with enough weight and resources behind them to compete against the Americans. But with Netflix spending several billion dollars a year on content, it will be a hard task for anyone to catch them.
