They wouldn't need to show ads in between programmes though, (they show plenty ads for TV Licensing though).

I accept people like that fact but I think given the choice of ads and getting £145 into their pockets every year would outweigh that niggle.
Ironically I have found as many of the really well off people also want the Licence fee abolished as do the people on middle and low incomes.

That's incorrect Joey.

There are all sorts of concessions.

Patients in hospitals don't pay.

People in care homes that have a tv room - one tv - don't pay.

those in care homes have reduced payments if they have TV for sole use.

Prisoners don't pay - CRIMINALS who suck the system on all counts.

Young offenders don't pay. as above.

There are a great many types that don't have to pay.
