Andy The Photo Dr ♿️ 🏴 (@andythephotoDr) reported@Jcaird2 It’s basically freeview albeit a bit cut down via the internet. We have been fine without aerial anyway and missed nothing we like but it will be nice to flick through stuff again and stumbling on something to watch.

Tommy D (@TomDennison12) reported@FractalDoctor @DailyMail TV and radio is all that many elderly people have for comfort, especially living on their own with limited mobility, so yes, taking away Freeview is a bad idea. I doubt if too many 80 to 90 year olds have a fast broadband connection !

Liarpoliticians, UK has rogue Parliament+police (@liarpoliticianz) reported@Osprey0 @SkyNews Yes, GB News WAS in HD on Freeview, but the paedophiles in @OfCom decided to erase five HD TV channels, for garbage 5G mobile phones. The channels are still in HD on satellite, a cheapo sat box, sub £100 dish, and decent cable, and you can have it all so long as dish south facing

David (@Disc_light) reported@kenton1206 I must be the only person on the planet that doesn't have any subscription TV service and only have freeview!

KennyBilly (@KeepingKen) reportedOver 13 million households across the UK currently rely on Freeview - and residents could be forced to fork out an additional £20 monthly and potentially purchase a new television set if the service is discontinued, experts have cautioned.

Stephen Meyer (@stephen_e_meyer) reported@MTGraveStudio our small town got cable TV, my parents were at my grandparents down the street, I was home alone, there was an HBO “freeview” showing ALIEN. I was 7. Had nightmares for months, couldn’t tell mom why bc it was rated R & I’d get in trouble Still think its the best horror film.

Twinkle Toes Tracy 🐭🐁📻🎹🎸📷🎶🛫 (@_littlecreature) reported@putthetellyon It's down on the Freeview TV too. I was waiting for the weather after the main news, except it just kept rolling the news ident.

Marina (and Buster🐾)🐈🚣♀️ (@mpmeg) reported@MajQapla The Encore app is a catch up only service, and doesn't show live TV. I expect Abigail's Party will be added after broadcast. I watch TPTV via Virgin media channel 445, I know it is on Freeview (81?)

Matt Quinn - The Caledonian Television Company. (@Matt_Q_OnX) reported@sparry951 @diablik_uk @BENEFITS_NEWS It'll be a slow creep; for many years now some channels on the Freeview EPG have in fact been streamed. Freeview recorders are still readily available for those that want them; if you're using Sky/Virgin etc. you're already NOT using the Freeview service that is 'under threat'.

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.
