@BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

@custardsmaster @JamesSm37912408 @EmmaKennedy Bigger point, do you access Freeview? Freeview (or to be precise, terrestrial television services) are transmitted on BBC owned multiplexes. No BBC also means the commercial channels disappear from terrestrial broadcast. Your TV licence literally pays for the transmission network

@LaylaMoran @BBCOxford If the BBC is great, it will have no trouble getting subscribers, what are you afraid of? Why force say pensioners or the poor to pay a regressive tax? They may be happy with FreeView, why should they be forced into paying for the BBC if they don't want it?

@Fles__ @partnumber2 They wouldn't be destroying it. What are you afraid of? If the BBC is as good as you say it is, they'll have lots of subscribers, go global. For those that would prefer to save money and just use FreeView, why would you force them to pay for a service you want but they don't?

@WebsterFrank @abline11 @jamiebglover Could it be some, in fact a lot have freeview, freesat etc and can watch other news. Trouble is we still have to pay BBC to watch other news. Get it?

@SamPEAK1951 @NadineDorries The principle is people shouldn't be forced to pay for something they don't want, need or support. Yes, we all pay for essential services that some may not use but that's not the same as a TV broadcaster. If they are so good go subscription only and come off Freeview

@Trampolinecare @bantalols Yep. They don't watch Freeview stuff. Even the concept of having to sit down to watch stuff at a specific time is laughable to them.

@ClaireJHartnell @Porrohman @jamiebglover Bad analogy. You can watch ITV, Channel 4, and the rest of the Freeview channels for free (clue is in the name), or you can watch Netflix or Sky etc., which you can pay for as and when you want to use them. The BBC is a non requirement both in terms of content and personal cost.

@stephenkb @colinelves There’s a technical issue with existing Freeview (DVB-T2 as rolled out in the UK) equipment being used for content access. It’s impractical to turn conventional TV into pay TV. So it will have to be free to air plus top up TV via streaming and/or another box.

@JonAshworth Pensioners like their BBC shows too. And people who live in (Tory) rural seats with poor broadband like Freeview too.
