^ Is that by choice?
Sorry for ignoring you there Brigantium! No, not through choice --personal circumstances just lead to me not having a TV for two & half months. Got one now. Didn't really miss it, to be honest.^ Is that by choice?
Man...Breaking Bad is so addictive! Can't.Stop.Watching.
In the UK the TV licence funds the BBC. Some of the money also goes towards the other terrestrial channels with the agreement that they provide news coverage to certain criteria e.g. Channel 4 also gets a small part of the funding. But the majority of the fee goes to paying for the BBC's massive output. It's a bit of an anachronism --you have to have a licence if you own a television; even if you don't watch any BBC content. (How can anyone prove the case either way?) And they hound people who live at an address with no licence associated with it. The send you letters threatening you & shit.WTF is a TV license?
