    @jamiebglover You also get Freeview and Freesat, S4C, and the fibre broadband rollout, the latter being a less spoken of contribution from the licence fee, which benefits all the streaming service providers at no cost to them.

  • PhilNTebb Philip (@PhilNTebb) reported

    @TalkingPicsTV Interesting, is that mandated by Freeview or was there a functional incentive to move down the band?

  • Takethatjoe Gerald Smith 🤢 (@Takethatjoe) reported

    @HarrietSergeant @darrengrimes_ What’s your solution? Obviously advertising is out of the question and it has to be kept on freeview to allow accessibility for all, so what do you propose?

  • AgentC1983 Chad H (@AgentC1983) reported

    @TheLordMidge @5h4k35p34r31 @guardian Amongst other routes there are plenty of freeview/sat boxes that allow access to the android App Store allowing that service to be used on a freeview certified box. It is the major funder and essentially saved the system from commercial demise.

    In the meantime, transfering the signal to a more sturdy temporary mast will result in 2,500 households losing Freeview, mostly near the Durham coast. This is because the mini-mast isn't tall enough to clear the edge of the North York Moors, blocking line of sight. -2-

    @DaveOufc They could do it like Freeview - core channels are free, then you can choose to pay for add-ons. All this tech exists, they've just never had to consider it before

  • ericdn627 Eric Norton (@ericdn627) reported

    @ParodyFPL @TransponderTV I'm sure nothing, other than a removal of channels as the BBC shuts them down or otherwise makes them unavailable on Freeview, which appears inevitable.

    @GBNEWS Would like to say to silly people saying "ah yes but poor people will have to pay for subscription service if BBC gives them back their £159" No, I NEVER watch BBC cannot stand it yet have to pay. Happy with 5 Freeview channels: GB News, Talking Pictures, Horror, Blaze, Sky Arts.

    TV Licence: last time I checked, you couldn't watch TV without one (legally) and it was the only fee I paid for TV when I was younger. I had freeview, the fee may have funded the BBC, but it gave me access to so much more. Not bad value for me and I enjoy zero advert breaks.

    @ken_brittain @redroofbraemar hundreds of free channels for free thousands on you tube why pay £159 for BBC and 70 crap Freeview channels then can view catch-up without licence?
