What do you think, should the BBC be privatised?
I personally don't think it should, as I like listening to radio & watching TV with no ads, but, instead of the increase, I wouldn't object to a few banner or ads on the BBC site, or sponsorship of the traffic news or something, I'm sure that'd gain them some dosh, what'd you all think?

I would like to see the licence fee scrapped,for one they have an unfair advantage over the other broadcasters.

I agree with Mojo - it's good to watch TV without ads (though it can get annoying in long films when you want to go to the toilet or make a drink!).

Excellent, as the TV license funds the radio .

NO WAY!

The BBC is the best broadcasting company in the world. Its radio can certainly not be beaten and I'd much rather watch programs without adverts!

However, I feel some of the licence money is wasted and should be put to better use or lowered, but scrapping it, is NOT an option, false stop! IMO.
