BBC Restrictions

Much complaining by the private broadcasters about how the BBC is too powerful and stops them from offering their own pay for services (in terms of things like news, catch up services).

They see that the BBC's offerings are free.

No they are not they are paid for too! But I agree that maybe rather than having them paid through compulsion, it should be opt in somehow. That is going to be very hard to arrange though, and how on earth do you do it for online content (iPlayer, web news?).
