Good points.

The only reason we don't have five minutes of viewing and ten minutes of adverts repeatedly on every other channel is because all those channels are restrained by the BBC. If the BBC ever has to resort to advertising, our TV is going to become the same as American TV and having spent a lot of time in the U.S and knowing how un-watchable TV over there is because the adverts make it impossible; I would vote to keep the TV licence.
