O čem je toďten plk: Re:its stupid even ppl who dont have a television installed but have a computer still have to pay it
Snoopy: Yes... people can watch TV using TV cards and the likes of BBC iplayer. And I'd rather have the BBC advert free. I hated it when ITV were showing F1 and every 10 minutes or so there were adverts.
The BBC does raise money through sales of it's programs and of merchandise (eg Dr who stuff) and produces programs that media guru's complain that we do not have enough of.
Also the BBC produces things like the World Service, something people around the world have relied on for info for many years. And as such.. the BBC was quite a significant part in the liberation of Europe from the Nazi's via coded messages.
It may not be perfect, but it is a British institution free of the likes of Murdoch and other manipulators of the media and the need to make programs just to raise the price of adverts.
