If the BBC had ad breaks then there would be no need for TV license, other channels get their money from advertisements. However that would dramatically change the quality of BBC TV programs as they would have to be shorter to fit in the ad breaks. Imagine "Question Time" with ad breaks? However they could do that and perhaps have a subscription channel for those who want BBC with out breaks - or have the full programs on line as a large majority of people do watch on line or catch up - the days of everybody sitting down at the same time to watch the same program is becoming a thing of the past.
