@Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

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

@zsk That’s why we watch Freeview. The problem is, many will have to work for a living, rather than being a parasite on the public purse and demanding the stealth tax by menaces

Does anybody else with a Freeview PVR find programmes on the @Channel4 player freezing frequently for half a sec (but sound fine) ? Our @PanasonicUK is awful trying to watch a C4 series. Once in a blue moon it does it on BBC iPlayer too.

@theplopster1999 That already exists - called Freeview and it’s crap with virtually no new content - that is what you’d end up with for poor people - even cheapest subscription now is nearly £300 per year

@andymhamilton Is one of the ideas. Need Freeview to do encryption, probably will do in 2027. Hope it is subscription, think Beeb has something to offer, just slimmed down. Sell most radio off would help.

@catherinerusse2 @Public_Campaign @NadineDorries Signed & RT'd! ✅ I only have Freeview channels so if we lost the BBC further down the the line I would lose a big chunk of my best viewing! Admittedly I could maybe use the licence money to buy something else...but is the quality of new content as good as the BBC?!🙄

@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?

@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.

Many pensioners in this country rely on Freeview and don't have sky, Netflix etc, the irony is for them to get the services they enjoy now will cost 20+ per month in private subscriptions. Good news for Murdoch bad news for the pensioners. #BBCLicenceFee

@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.
