Had a threatening letter through today saying my licence expired a month ago.

I find it hilarious that our 'democratic' government forces us to pay money to a terrible organization which i don't even watch, listen to, use or intend to use.

In fact, i cant recall the last time i watched something on the bbc which wasn't bettered by something on sky/commercial channels, and bbc radio (probably with the excption of radio 4) is one giant, large, nick grimsaw hipster bumming pile of ste.

I want to pay for Sky because I watch it.

I don't like being legally forced to pay something that has no interest/relevance/use to me.

Nevermind, it's the bank holiday weekend. There's bound to be something good on tonight. Let's see what my £145 has bought me tonight.

Aaaaaaaaaaaand we're all paying for 3.5 hours of the eurobk song contest. Nevermind, i'll turn over to BBC 2 and watch the Chelsea f***ing flowershow.

Hmmm, maybe BBC 3 will help?

Nope, coverage of the worlds biggest fking hipster event, the radio 1, big wk weekend. Oh wait, what's that, they're covering the exact same ste on BBC radio aswell?

I might as well tune in to 'Panjabi Hit Squad' on the BBC Asian Network.

I'm all for different tastes an options, which is why I dont pay to watch the Golf or the Boxing on Sky. Yet I'm forced to pay for the BBC regardless of what I can watch.

The sooner we can opt out of the BBC, the better.

Did anyone watch the league 1 playoff on the bbc? or some live f1? What about the championship playoff today?

Oh yeah, sorry, pipped by sky.

I mean, it's fking league one.... It's hardly a champions league final (which they also dont have).
