People whinge about these things and yet continue to use the service. I believe in boycotting things I disagree with.

But isn't a national, govt. funded broadcaster a good idea? Whether thro' a licence such as you guys have to buy, or through a few extra bucks on taxes such as Canadians pay to have the CBC? The alternative is a mass of crap out of the US and ads for 20 mins. out of the hour. If you guys are concerned about a national identity, isn't the BBC part of it?
