Default BBC considers charging viewers for archive TV shows online

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2012...hive-tv-online





"Under the plan the corporation is looking at introducing a "pay-per-view" scheme to charge viewers who want to watch thousands of hours of BBC programming after it has appeared on the iPlayer's seven-day catch up TV service.
The scheme is one of a number of ideas the corporation is looking at to attempt to recoup some of the considerable cost of making the BBC's enormous archive of programming available for viewing online.
It is almost certain to court controversy with licence-fee payers who are already charged £145.50 a year for access to BBC programming.
However, a spokesman for the BBC said that this is not a "two-tier" licence fee system, but a micropayment to cover costs including payments that would have to be made to programme makers for the rights."



The BBC is Wrong
they should no longer get out cash
let them stand on their own feet

4OD archive all of their old shows for free, so it's not like we're asking for another TV shack.
