For you maybe... But consider the people who are NOT interested in what BBC has to offer. Why should they be forced to fund the TV station? If they wanna make it atax, then friggin make it a tax. That's what danish people have been crying about for so long.
I don't own a TV. But I have internet-access, thus I have to pay about £200 a year to DR(our state channel) even though, I never ever visit their website. It's friggin ridiculous and I feel robbed. They could make their website subscription based, but no... They have the law behind them to be able to freely steal money from people who do not want their service.
Honestly if it was just a general entertainment tax, it would have been better, because then the money we'd have to give would actually be proportional with what money we have.
I don't really have a lot of monies as it is <.<

You have to pay TV license for Internet? Here you can watch any BBC stuff on-line for free. The license only applies to live broadcasts.
The BBC is pretty ubiquitous anyway. I don't know anyone with the equipment who doesn't watch their TV or listen to their radio.
