@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

@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.

@JuliaHB1 So often disagree with you but not on this one, from August 10th 2021 til Jan 5th 2022 we had no FREEVIEW services due to transmitter fire so had ZERO channels of any network for over 4 months, imagine such a third world country we are for infrastructure. Obviously sensible 1/2

@RussInCheshire These set of stats don't even cover that the licence fee pays in to support the infrastructure to deliver the "other channels" including broadband roll-outs as well as being a founding force behind Freeview. #SaveOurBBC

@LewisJamesBrown I'd agree with that - keep more radio (hard to outreach places and one which really add value - R3) Gap with freeview used by people lower down the income scale needs addressing. Get the commercial arm to subsidise Radio and the TV channel (s).

@jonholmes1 @Aiannucci 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?

@landeleanor People cant afford the Internet at the moment. I already said changing the cost of anything is beyond my abilities much like yours . I'm sure freeview is still available without the need for the internet maybe it could be done that way. Do you have a solution?
