NI Subscription would clearly be different to the Licence Fee. You could choose to pay it and watch BBC. If you chose not to subscribe then you could still watch ITV, Channel 4 etc etc Seems pretty obvious to me.
That’s the case now if you’ve a smart tv (which admittedly everyone doesn’t). My point being that if you don’t want to be bombarded with crass advertisements you’re going to have to pay.
Agree with Alfred re: the banality of the punditry. Which is why I mute Mr Shearer and the laughing policeman Micah Richards.
However I fully believe that without it the armchair fan who has never played football in his life would have nothing to chat about to his mates on Monday morning.
