It's still absolutely mad to me that you guys need TV licenses.

The upshot is ad-free TV channels and radio stations.
It's like a netflix subscription, except the BBC has a history of making actually good content.

Having said that, I don't watch TV anymore. Just streaming.

I kinda wish there was a way to support only the radio side of it. I listen to a lot of BBC 6music.

Why? You need a license for everything these days. I had to accept an EULA to install an app so I could RSVP to a wedding recently.

The only mad thing is that the TV license is opt-out and they assume the entire country watches BBC 1
