Title: Televison licence
Post by: peterandjen on April 07, 2010, 02:26 PM

I was just reading my tv licence application form and noticed this part ill quote....
"TV equipment means television recieving equipment, such as a tv set, computer, mobile phone, games console, digital set top box or dvd/vhs recorder."
It also includes streamed over the net live or recorded tv programmes in or outside the uk.
Shocking really.

Hi, thought you only needed a license for live TV but not for streamed 'catch up' programmes.

Still good value compared to Sky, unless all you want to watch is footy of course, in which case Roop will no doubt be glad to empty your wallet and provide you all you could wish for.

Cheers

The licence pretty much coves all forms of 'TV' viewable media devices. It pays for the BBC which is amongst the finest broadcasting in the world. I used to grumble about the fee but i'm fairly sure i'd miss the BBC more.
