JR (@JonnyRoLi) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

Selene Mariposa (@Selene_Mariposa) reported@LillacTyanu This is the most accurate breakdown in the thread, so thank you. You are right, the fee is for live TV, Freeview comes preloaded, and if you never connect the aerial or watch live you do not owe it. They can chase you, but the burden is on them to prove you watched. That nuance is the whole ballgame. The fee leans on people not knowing they already have the exit. You clearly do. 🦋

It remains on Freeview (for now) but is said to be suffering financial problems.

Douglass_McFarnham (@douglassfarnham) reported@Steven59066 He might mean his distant family member anne_widdecombe, which according to rumours on X u apparently killed for trying to cancel freeview itself,

Stephen Neal (@Stephen_Neal) reported@UHD4k @Bobbinz @SVGEurope Afraid although I work for BBC Studios (which makes shows for the BBC) I have no insight into what iPlayer may support in the future. AAC was chosen for Freeview HD because Dolby had no equivalent receiver-mix audio desc'n support in 2009ish when the platform was standardised.

The Opinionater (@StoneAgeDodger) reported@leeburridge @panonse @premnsikka Freesat reception better than Freeview in many places all that we needs is a storm to roll over and old skool minecraft starts streaming then no signal.

Velvettoatone (@TeamMPTS1) reportedAnother stupid idea is the 2034 plan to turn off Freeview. In no way will rural broadband be up to providing reliable services by then..the same applies to FM/MW radio. It's ridiculous meanness dressed up as 'progress' @SarahChampionMP @KarlTurnerMP @lukeakehurst

Clive Roper (@CliveRoper) reported@Glynn11111 @GBNEWS How does that run then as it doesn’t use the Freeview via aerial signal…

Sam 1997 (@SamGate360) reported@retrovinmania79 @NoContextBrits You don't the difference between Freeview/DVB (which is the morden digital version of what you said) and a streaming service that requires you to make a profile account to use the software/service even though you don't like on YouTube. You only pay to get rid of the adverts.
