  • philrandal Phil Randal (@philrandal) reported from Herefordshire, England

    Not at all surprised to find that @itvx is a pile of rubbish. Not integrated into Freeview Play's TV guide, no Channel list in the app's UI, so using it for catch up is a pain in the neck. Didn't they do any usability tests? Unbelievably bad. That's if it loads... #itvx

    @TheNine96539330 @TheLastHatGirl @NadineDorries I’ll defend programming for the disabled, Freeview maintenance to give access to TV for the elderly and poor, resources for schools and Welsh/Gaelic language programming all the way. If you don’t agree, that’s your choice. Cheers!

    @_Kano_P What gripes me. I NEVER watch live TV for one exception… i only pay a tv licence to watch F1 on Sky… which I then have to pay £41 a month for. If you pay for sky/bt/virgin etc then you shouldn’t need a licence. If you use freesat / or built in tv freeview then you should

    @cal_on_demand @kkbigk @OwenJones84 A marginal market at most. What about educational TV? Minority output like Welsh language programmes? Who would finance the freeview transmitters maintenance? Local news? Non-commerical radio? BBC website? World Service?

  • DaveWayne306 Dave Wayne (@DaveWayne306) reported

    @simonday And how many of these shows, and others such as QI, Mock the Week, etc. are repeated on freeview, cable, and satellite channels, and probably being watched by people who "never watch BBC" ?

    @GaryLineker @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?

  • RobSmit12639238 Tech Man (@RobSmit12639238) reported

    @EBRedding5 @brv1983 @MartinSLewis Ppl are forced to pay it to watch ITV,CH4, Ch5, Dave, Paramount Network all of which are funded by adverts not the BBC or Licence Fee. Freeview isnt Free..

  • EastLight EastLight (@EastLight) reported

    @jamiebglover @CatsAreLoud You can't really defend the BBC's technical standards. They foisted Freeview upon us- the quality on SD channels has always been terrible- worse than VHS. Likewise DAB radio sounds poor, and BBC national FM radio still uses NICAM distribution- lossy compression of the 1970s kind.

  • MrSammyJames Sammy James (@MrSammyJames) reported

    @BerishaShow But if it's a subscription service there would be no reason to keep those prohibitively expensive stations going. They would chase profits like any other business. Also, please tell me how subscription freeview TV / FM radio could work from a technical point of view?

    @cononeilluk Currently impossible to put a paywall on Freeview which many people use to access BBC, ITV, Ch 4, Ch5 or any radio stations. So how exactly could BBC become a subscription service?
