[ubuntu-uk] watch tv on ubuntu!

[Sean Miller]

The whole TV Licence thing is quite bizarre, imho, but it's amazing how when
it gets debated so many people stand up for it -- "the BBC is such a great
institution it's a small price to pay" etc. etc.

Most of us pay it, but the premise that because you have  TV capable of
receiving BBC broadcasts you should be paying for same is fairly dodgy... at
£10/month or similar it's not really very good value compared to, say,
Sky.   I think that if they made it optional, with some sort of
subscription, they'd have to drop the price or add some extras in.   Perhaps
package free broadband and a couple of nights in Barbados...
