[quote]Writing in the Guardian on Sunday, Steve Hewlett wrote: "One question that must surely arise in the unbundled 'My BBC' world is, once I've picked out the bits of the BBC I use and value, why should I pay for the rest?
"And because the technology of on-demand delivery that underpins the whole project allows subscription in a way that broadcast TV and radio don't - at least not easily - 'My BBC' will inevitably in time reignite the question of subscription funding, for some BBC services at least."[/quote]
So a while back the BBC was planning on rolling out the BBC Iplayer around the world starting with some European countries and it came at a price of lets say......5 Euro.
Now the UK citizens get the BBC Iplayer service for free since it's bundled in with the license fee.
But as people move over to watching BBC shows online instead of TV the BBC may look for another way to fund it, that may come from the international users of it's service.
So would you pay to use some BBC services and continue to help fund the BBC? Brits would you agree to pay a license fee for just online?

No, can't remember the last time I watched it or any of our TV networks online or otherwise. Netflix or bust.
