Re: TV Licence
Take this with a pinch of salt but a few tabloids have a report that the TV Licence is looking to include Amazon Prime and Netflix subscriptions as a reason for needing a TV Licence!

Even CRT monitors could do that. A TV is just a monitor with display source provided from elsewhere, eg a camera(CCTV) or a tuner.

Re: TV Licence
Looking at a few definitions of Television and Television is the electronic broadcast and the equipment used to receive said broadcast so on that basis a Mobile phone a Laptop and Tablet anything that receives a broadcast ( internet can be included when you look at the definition of broadcast ) is a Television. Time for a new definition me thinks

Possibly anyone who has an interweb connection, or pays council tax, or income tax. Its easily added. Change is coming but it will mean a lot more paying than they currently do. Pay up and be happy
