Re: So
From what I've seen of the BBC, it caters for the low-brow with it's soaps and light entertainment and it caters to the high-brow with its BBC2 or BBC4 stuff.
My experience is that both are lost on me entirely, being somewhere in the middle.
I just don't watch TV anymore, when I want Videos I have my DVD collection ripped to a couple of drives and already have much of my favourites and anything new comes out worth watching I buy (usually a boxset).
I'd be willing to pay a sub for the news (as long as it could be delivered in an rss without any sports (which isn't news, just another form of soap). As that's all I use the BBC for these days.
So, yeah, put me down for the 'minimum' subscription.
