    @cononeilluk Currently impossible to put a paywall on Freeview which many people use to access BBC, ITV, Ch 4, Ch5 or any radio stations. So how exactly could BBC become a subscription service?

  • MagnusBiker1 67MJR (@MagnusBiker1) reported

    @zsk You'd get **** loads more on Freeview or FreeSat for.... free.

  • am_henderson Al Henderson (@am_henderson) reported

    @tafallen Don't they also maintain the freeview transmitter network?

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @TheNine96539330 @TheLastHatGirl @NadineDorries I’ll defend programming for the disabled, Freeview maintenance to give access to TV for the elderly and poor, resources for schools and Welsh/Gaelic language programming all the way. If you don’t agree, that’s your choice. Cheers!

    @cal_on_demand @kkbigk @OwenJones84 A marginal market at most. What about educational TV? Minority output like Welsh language programmes? Who would finance the freeview transmitters maintenance? Local news? Non-commerical radio? BBC website? World Service?

    @mrdanwalker Of the Freeview TV transmitter network. 4 months and only on January 5th did we get 9 out of the 220+ channels back, conveniently all BBC NO ITV/C4/C5 etc but it's the North East so expect the southern centric BBC not to be too fussed, you only cover the stories you wish so not

    @Aiannucci @Channel4 How is not forcing people to pay for a service they may not want 'coming for' ? What is your problem? A pensioner for example, may decide to save money and stick to Freeview. Why force them to pay for BBC. If BBC is great, then people will subscribe.

    @pauljamestailor @Av8trix1 @bbcpress Never check the news headlines online? Never listen to local radio stations in the car for traffic reports? Never listen to R1 & 2? Never use Freeview, hosted by the Beeb, or watch their classy repeats on Dave, etc? Never used iPlayer? Yeah, right...

  • pjtobin00 Paddy (@pjtobin00) reported

    @AudsDisease @SkyNews What about Freeview channels? The license fee also goes to maintaining the Freeview network

  • OnlyAPrimate Δ (@OnlyAPrimate) reported

    @UKSpunkyMonkey @JustMark33 @GaryLineker Yes, that's because the BBC is non-excludable. Sky can turn your signal off very easily and do it all the time. How would the BBC stop you from listening to BBC Radio? Also most of the TV is on Freeview. I'm hearing lots of over-simplistic reasoning in this thread.
