Pretty shitty deal we got in Britain, eh?
No. BBC has some great programming.
"The BBC's domestic television channels have no commercial advertising and collectively they accounted for more than 30% of all UK viewing in 2013. The services are funded by a television licence."
I mostly use streaming services for TV, although I also have an antenna and occasionally watch over the air broadcast TV. It's free sorta. The price you pay is a an hours worth of TV is only about 38 mins. The other 22 mins is commercials for diarrhea pills, constipation pills, boner pills, even yet still more pharmaceutical ad's followed by a long list of side effects, car commercials, sour cream commercials, furniture store commercials, get out of debt commercials.......
