BBC

[pez]

Maybe I'm really stupid, but could someone please explain to me who is paying for the BBC website which the whole world can use - is it the funded by the TV licence fees?

And now they're putting stuff on YouTube?

So why the heck should I pay for the TV licence?

[edit] Dude, licence fee goes to their radio stations too. I HATE RADIO. I NEVER LISTEN TO IT. PUT ADVERTS ON THE RADIO AND STOP CHARGING ME. jkasdasfhksalfhjkas Or set up a separate frigging radio licence or whatever.

I have no idea if this link will for from outside Norway, but I hope so. This is an ad that the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK) used to send every year when I was a kid, to remind people to pay the tv licence. I was reminded of it by the talk here about dismantling tellies and so on. I believe it won a prize in Montreaux back in the 70s. :)

.................OMG XDDDDD

I've only seen one or two here, one of them features the guy playing a videotape of a chicken spinning in the microwave oven, so that the TV looked like a microwave oven, to try to escape from licencing officers....
