These days you can watch TV in most library's on their computers - so why should we keep paying for it?
The alternative is that they scrap it and the BBC start having advertising. What they could do is keep BBC 1 as it is - with no ads and then have another channel like BBC 2 which has ad breaks or have all ad breaks and have private subscription channel kept as it is now with no ads.
I just think the license has had it's day - what does anyone here think?

You do not have to pay for a TV license here in oz. We have been here over 40years and never had to pay for one.
