    @ShineyFx If you even use Freeview ever. You also use it. You do use something it pays for Now that doesn’t equate to you should pay for it. Ofc not, choice is choice But like you do and it will be the case for streaming service eventually

  • PCarmichaelVO Paul Carmichael (@PCarmichaelVO) reported

    @d0hertyry4n @wilsonfromnorth @NadineDorries What’s that got to do with educational resources every school/college use, maintaining Freeview transmitters so the elderly/poor have access to TV, having programming that is made for the disabled community? These things aren’t made by anyone else because they’re not profitable.

    @mrdanwalker I look every evening on my Freeview app. Apart from war films, programmes about America & Australia, rich peoples hotels or stupid programmes about rich kids dating each other, there’s nothing on.

  • macmeonly buggrit (@macmeonly) reported

    @PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries They don't maintain the freeview network. It's a joint enterprise with ITV and Chanel 4. Plus it makes money from adverts.

  • chrisbardell Chris Bardell (@chrisbardell) reported

    @Turnip_Of_Doom @JoshHarris91 @davidschneider Yep, ITV/C4/C5 will never be able to pay for the entire running cost of Freeview. So it’ll close and they’ll go subscription-only.

  • coldgooseberry Aℓexªnder (@coldgooseberry) reported

    not. The services aren't even comparable. The BBC provides content across terrestrial TV, radio, the internet, iPlayer, and BBC Studios create programmes for other media companies too. In addition to that they maintain the Freeview network, which is almost certainly... [cont]

  • martin_frasehog Martin F (@martin_frasehog) reported

    @RedemptionBroon @KrisGriffiths @JuliaHB1 It's currently 43p a day, which includes the cost of maintaining the Freeview transmission network, BBC TV, radio, iPlayer, etc. I have no interest in paying for Sky or similar. If that was £2 a day, it would still be a bargain. About the same as a high of street coffee.

  • TormentedToffee Tormented Toffee (@TormentedToffee) reported

    @JuliaHB1 You fail to mention the BBC also contribute to both Broadband and Freeview. I suppose you never use them either ? All for 43p a day 👍

  • HelloPalendrome Hannah Jones Design (@HelloPalendrome) reported

    @rach0907 @LlamaBusiness Virgin's dreadful for price hikes alongside declining service. Scrapped it all when we moved, can get everything we want on Freeview/Prime/Netflix/iPlayer. Then got a Humax box so we can record stuff if we want to. EE's internet is brilliant for the price too

  • Ems1965 Emma (@Ems1965) reported

    @Ian_gm_F @bbcpress You conveniently forgot to mention the radio stations, world service, website with free access to a whole range of educational resources for children, funding and upkeep of freeview infrastructure
