My TV Licence is £13.43 a month and I watch/listen to BBC services on more than 2 devices, so its cheaper than Netflix?

I think both are good value for money when I'm paying about £50 per month for Sky TV/Sports.

Things cost money. TV licence isn't expensive.

You watch and use the BBC services so yes it is great value for money for you.

thanks for that, sorry i realise i could have just googled it myself

i think my breadth of content on BBC (web, kids, TV, iplayer, radio) is better value myself.

furthermore - if you dont watch BBC live and dont use iplayer, why do you pay the license fee? do you need it to watch Sky live?

Netflix isn't a like-for-like comparison.
Netflix is international and can spread costs accordingly. It produces commercial stuff.

I'm not aware of it providing public service broadcasting - news, weather, sport, educational support, radio.

Aside from being a sparple (apparently), this is another bellowing about changing something because it won't bend the knee without any investigation into how they replace it. Five years seems incredibly short to assess that and come up with a plan - advertising? how does that bite into other channels?

No-one in govt has made any argument to tear things up or what to replace them with.

I genuinely don’t believe any of the people who say they don’t use the BBC.

Every single time it actually gets drilled into it turns out they use it loads but just don’t value it. Or they don’t use it but the wife does all the time, and the kids, and I guess I do listen to the radio, or this podcast, or use an app connected to BBC weather….
