  @RickSacrop @neal_preshner Hmm, where I live can’t get Freeview signal, still have to pay licence fee. I have to pay for Sky so I can watch TV, hardly fair in my book. Sooner it’s scrapped the better!

  There is a weird bug where save/load files from freeview perspective (i.e. the one that isn't the isometric top down view) causes double-prompts on saving/loading existing names

  @UHD4k @Bobbinz @SVGEurope Afraid although I work for BBC Studios (which makes shows for the BBC) I have no insight into what iPlayer may support in the future. AAC was chosen for Freeview HD because Dolby had no equivalent receiver-mix audio desc'n support in 2009ish when the platform was standardised.

  @RidgeandFrost @WilfredFrost Once Freeview is turned off by this Government, ITV under American ownership will be a subscription model streaming service.

  @PeteBritish Freeview is all I have, and broadband. I would never, ever, pay for Sky.

  @Steven59066 He might mean his distant family member anne_widdecombe, which according to rumours on X u apparently killed for trying to cancel freeview itself,

  @WhichUK For live events,internet speed isn’t everything. For reliability/lowest delay, broadcast still wins: Freeview/satellite first,then cable/TV provider. Fibre streaming is great,but usually behind “live”. 5G/4G/Starlink can work well, but depend more on signal, congestion and load.

  @superTV247 Simple answer of course would just be to let viewers decide and make the tv licence voluntary. If people want the BBC they will pay for it. The licence is a poll tax - the poorest and the richest pay the same - and very regressive. Why force the poor to pay to watch freeview tv

  @ryantegan @skytv The majority of the hundreds of channels they offer are standard definition, rolling repeat or Freeview channels. Most movies are on Netflix a month later too. Cancel the lot and get a firestick. It's illegal, but so are Sky's rip off prices.

  So the advantage of Freely is that unlike Freeview, when my internet goes down I also lose my TV. Technology continues to improve our lives.

  I have never missed watching terrestrial TV, it won't be a big leap to also cancel Freeview. I'll just read even more.
