[QUOTE="timo_w2s, post: 874381, member: 196043"] What I'd be more than happy with is keeping all existing BBC channels as they are now FTA on a UK spot and creating a new encrypt package on a widebeam transponder with BBC 1 Europe, BBC 2 Europe, BBC 3 Europe, BBC 4 Europe and BBC News + radio stations. They could blank out a few films and sports rights that aren't cost effective to broadcast to Europe too this way. Then charge expats a monthly/yearly fee. Even restrict it to just British nationals if they are worried about ruining their BBC Entertainment packages. The Swiss can limit their TV to Swiss nationals, why can't we? We used to have BBC TV Europe on Intelsat 25 years ago which showed live BBC 1 or BBC 2 programmes or teletext if both channels where showing imported programming. It was doable then, so it really should be doable now in the 21st century!!! [/QUOTE]
