I really struggle to believe that with all of the money wasted on 'enforcement' and the incessant letter writing the current arrangement is more efficient than just rolling it into council tax or similar.
But I don't really object to the fee. Yes, it sucks having to pay it, but I'd happily disconnect and stick with non-live and non-iplayer content if I wanted to not pay it. Is it really that awful that someone who wants to only watch ITV has to pay for a TV license? I hear this argument all the time but I'm sceptical.
Personally, even though I don't consume much of their content I can see that it provides great value for money, and I'd rather pay the fee for the rest of my life than see the BBC disappear and replaced by something on the level of ITV.
