Re: Funding commercial channels

"Can I have an opt-out when purchasing goods and services advertised on channels I do not watch?"
Yes. Dont buy them. Nobody is forcing you. Buy a brand that is not advertising on the channels you do not watch.
How about not charging us a telly tax for the BBC when we dont use it? That way we can have the freedom to purchase the goods and services we want without paying the competitor for nothing. Or when you buy a product (say a car) do you then go to its competitors and give them money under some misguided idea of them suddenly being more fair (than the product you have obviously gone out of your way for!!!!)?
(anyone would think this is complicated)
