I'm pretty sure the BBC aren't allowed to make a profit from ads from UK viewers.
- aac74 14y agoThey soon will. In the UK there are two versions of the BBC. The main one charges a 'licence fee' if you own a tv and another one called 'channel 4'. Channel 4 is part funded out of general taxation and part funded by ads. They will soon be forced to merge because the internet is bringing the licence fee racket to an end. The BBC is desperately trying to work out a way to tax ISPs !
- stuartmemo 14y agoThere's not one thing in this comment that is true or makes sense. Channel 4 has nothing to do with the BBC. ISPs are trying to charge the BBC for iPlayer bandwidth, not the other way round.
