I agree over 75s should get free TV Licence but money should not come from the BBC,S already over stretched budget. Guess we will have to look forward to more repeats

Lets face it all they want to do is make us pay for everything. What sport is left on BBC now? Wimbledon and half the rugby soon and a few football games a year or 10 minutes of your favourite club team if your lucky. I want terrestrial and have decided if it goes to Sky or Virgin guess I won,t be watching it. Murdoch, Branson etc are rich enough

Sounds like the those that pay disagree with those that don,t?? No news there there. If I pay for something so should everyone. Touch of jealousy no doubt>

Oh dear 30 percent of population that like music listen to DAB not go on internet how old fashioned of them. Glad we live in a democracy therefore pick and choose what we listen to not what internet numpties think we all should do. Baa Baa Sheep

Amazing how many people still like fm even though quality is a lot worse than it use to be. Just like old tv when they wanted us all to move to digital picture quality was allowed to degrade so you had no choice but to change. I know freeview offers a lot more channels but half them are crap. Well maybe even more than half. I know if I want to splash the money there are lots to get extra if only you could choose the 10 you wanted without all the extra baggage Sky ,Bt add to their packages. At a sensible price

Yeah as always it does,nt matter if anybody wants to use something that is perfectly ok they have no say in the matter. I agree technology moves on but mainly when big manufactures learned if they made something that last for a long time people stop buying and sales dry up. So we had normal tvs, then wide screen then hd and low and behold now everyone has hd nearly. Time to make everybody believe they have to have super hd But even before we get that up and running the next upgrade is just around the corner. We are told something is old or tech speak " obsolete" but it ain,t it is just big companies want more and more profits. Just imagine if the likes of apple only bought out a new I phone every 5 years?? End of the world

Of course the government will never compensate anyone when services are switched off. They want to sell all the old frequencies so they can fill the black hole in the economy government after government will do this.

Freedom of choice what people watch on their tv in the UK still I believe. If you don,t want to pay don,t. As for things being SMART I don,t think so. Nothing is Smart except living beings. Televisions are programmed not Smart.
