Argument #1 has been made well by several sibling comments: I would argue that the TV license fee is not payment for access to BBC content, but a funding mechanism to enable the creation of high-quality public value content which, once successfully financed, should be disseminated as widely as possible.
Argument #2: Estonians pay Estonian TV license fees, Austrians Austrian fees. In a common market and a political union, why do we block eachothers' public-value, publicy funded content from eachother?
- pmontra 10y agoI second that, especially #2. I also notice the irony of the BBC example with the UK possibly leaving the EU soon.
