The modern world doesn't particularly need it. You could even have a mandatory maximum price on "basic" packages that's the same as the license fee, for those who don't want to pay more.

Yeah exactly.
It should be optional not forced on us.Pay to play.

And the disgraceful harassment they put on people is disgusting.They hire a private company to try and intimidate people into letting them into their homes after they've opted out.
People need to remember that you don't have to let them in and they've got no right to enter your home unauthorised.
No corporation should be allowed to harrass people like that.
TV makers need to start making BBCless tellys.
