Why don’t the BBC do a PPV weekend pass for the Iplayer?

1. So pay for a week then?

2. I pay my license fee monthly. Can’t you just do that and then cancel it after you’re done? Perhaps not, maybe it ties you into a year contract regardless.

3. Just buy a month like you would any other streaming service.

4. Don’t pay ure license fee and watch it anyway

6. Just sign-up with a fake name and postcode

7. Iplayer doesn’t check if you have a licence if you answer “yes” when it asks.

8. Not sure if this helps but I watch iPlayer at my local library – they have a public licence

9. Don’t pay a licence fee.

   Watch the show.

   Carry on with your life.

10. The licence fee vultures are bastards and relentless, but they aren’t going to smash your door in and do you for not having a licence if you lie and watch one weekend’s worth of TV for free.

11. Why don’t you just lie to it?

    Man, you guys really hate the licence fee that much. The fact that 90% of the comments are “fuck the BBC and fuck their licence fee” is actually kind of disappointing.

    Yes, I have been watching and the production values on putting on basically live concerts on 5 stages for 12h per day has to be worth a tenner. shame there’s no way of paying like that.
