Television is a media whcih I very rarely watch nowadays, indeed I think the last time we had it switched on was almost a year ago for the Hogmanay show. However I do pay the licence fee every year as I quite often watch BBC iPlayer on my home computer.
A license for television is an odd thing to me. I suppose it places the burden on TV viewers rather than all taxpayers. Not to get political, but just an observation that intrigues me about how various governments fund various programs.

Just for curiosity's sake, how much does the license cost?
