Yes I would think so. I know some people don't like paying the license fee but one thing everyone in broadcasting would agree on is that adverts and programme sponsorship is a far from ideal way of funding programmes in this country. Neither is a license fee of course, but it is the lesser of two evils -for the time being at least.
I for one despise advertising and rarely watch programmes interrupted by commercials, they are obtrusive and makes me wonder who owns the TV sitting in my living room, me or the advertisers?
And I notice that Utube is being ruined by damn adverts thesedays -far too many.
