# That's incorrect.
If you watch TV on your computer you do (ie you have a TV card).
You don't need it to watch streamed programmes from a website TV channel or otherwise.

# I don't think so
We only pay a licence fee because of the BBC. SO I think there'll be on licence fee but the BBC are going to have to evolve. I think they already know this and this why they're paying a lot of attention to the BBC as a web format.

# I'n not sure.
We seem to be the only country that does charge a fee. I've noticed however that I watch the ads on the streamed TV asTHere's only aoubt 30-60 seconds of them and there's no time to do anything else.
So maybe overall the influence of an advert will be stronger having less.

# hmm
You must be covered by a valid TV Licence if you watch or record television programmes as they're being shown on TV. It makes no difference what equipment you use - whether it’s a laptop, PC, mobile phone, digital box, DVD recorder or a TV set - you still need a licence.

You do not need a TV Licence to view video clips on the internet, as long as what you are viewing is not being shown on TV at the same time as you are viewing it.

contradictory advice there

# More nonsense.
You do not pay a license for the BBC. You pay the government for a license to operate broadcast receiving equipment. The BBC is funded in turn by the government for providing public service broadcasts.

# I'll repeat.
If you watch anything on your PC which is live streamed. ( i.e football, olympics, things of that nature ) then you have to pay. I checked the wording of the statement released when they introduced this in 2006 before I posted.
You should know better than to tell me I'm wrong when you know I know I'm right ;)

edit:/
"Why do I need a licence for my PC?

You only need a licence if you use your computer to watch programmes at the same time as they are being shown on TV.

Before now, this has not been a major problem as very few programmes are available simultaneously on air and online.

Computer users only needed a TV licence if they had a special video card that could receive TV signals.

But the TV Licensing Authority now says watching the BBC's World Cup coverage over broadband will require a licence.

This is to stop people receiving TV programmes for free on their computer when they would have to pay to see them on a regular television.

Is this just about the World Cup?

No. The TV Licensing Authority says you need a licence to watch any TV station broadcasting within the UK on your computer.

However, you are free to watch archived programmes or downloadable clips without a licence. "

# You misunderstand me when I say streamed
I did not mean live tv. I think you can only watch live on the BBC site anyway. I don't really see the point of watching live TV on your computer. The whole point to me is to be able to watch what you want at a time fitting you.
Additionall I believe we ware arguing the same point.
(I helped save b3ta! riverghost servicing your mum since, Sun 11 Jan 2009, 15:49, archived)
# I know, but I like to argue. ;)
it's just the live bit which makes a huge difference but technically it stands true that you need one. I don't think it will be long before they say that if you have broadband and a PC then you have the capability to receive so you will pay. In much the same way as if you have a TV in your loft and swear it never is used you have to pay because you have the equipment on site capable of receiving broadcasts. Remember this is a government tax and they need as many people paying it as possible.

# i am now complaining to MP's MEP's and newspapers about TV licences
At the next review (2012 ?) a licence will be required for broadband unless the European Parliament rules it unlawfull or forces BBC to be encrypted
Also the TVLA does have powers of statuary entry to commercial premises but not to domestic premises
