Independence at a Price.

I can see there being some big discussions regarding the future of the BBC, specifically it's funding model.  The current 'everybody pays' method is looking more and more outdated as the monthly pay-as-you-go services increase in popularity.  I have no idea what it could be replaced with, I will leave it to the young creative types in a brain storming room, but it looks like our politicians want to make changes.
As long as they find a way to preserve the 'independence' of the BBC, that's ok with me, although I'm not too hopeful of that, and I can see it gradually becoming more and more commercial over a period of time.  It's my internet 'go to' news channel and I would miss that.
