My view on this is that if you pay your UK TV licence then you are entitled to view BBC content. If you don't then you aren't.
I agree, but what is the position on those living abroad who wish to watch anything other than BBC World, as in all the other terrestrial channels BBC 1,2,3,4 etc ? In these cases, homesick expats just want to have a connection (boom boom) to their homeland, rather than any nefarious intent.
