50 years ago when there was only one TV channel (BBC) - it might have been a good way to pay. It annoys me every time I have to renew my TV Licence.

(Pull up a soapbox) As far as i am concerned it is another type of tax. If I want the movie channels on Sky i can choose to pay extra. With modern technology we should be able to choose whether we want to pay or not. Should the TV Licence go?
