    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

    @art_of_philo @mini_saurus @Heccles94 I do google but reject cookies won't do paywalls & never buy stuff on-line, don't do online banking & only watch freeview using my rooftop ariel

  • sabrina777z SabrinaEvans01 (@sabrina777z) reported

    @ChrisGPackham Then let them pay for it. Why do I pay for a service I do not use. Maybe 10years ago I could agree but Freeview and Prime/Netflix no reason for BBC.

    @reformexposed Ooh maybe because if the bbc were forced to go subscription, it would get rid of freeview, funded by the tv licence, so to watch tv you would have to pay a blooming fortune on a subscription service?
