If you don't like it, don't be in scope and stop paying it
I gave up live TV completely to no longer fund an organisation who has lost it's way.
The TV licence has had it's day, it's no longer a defendable arrangement.
Personally, I think it's criminal that they prevent you from watching live TV from other suppliers if you choose not to 'subscribe' to the BBC. How many other suppliers have rights to block competitor content in such a way. If the TV licence had never existed and this arrangement was proposed today, people would laugh at such an entitled, overreaching, and indefensible suggestion.
