  1. Which was what I said. In fact, said same page was my source
  2. Exactly
  3. I'm pretty sure you're unaware of the concept.
  4. Well he almost got that right.
  5. Which is what I said. Practically all channels have streaming services showing the vast majority of their content. You're just being nittpicky about the definition of a channel, which for me is the entirety of a broadcasting company's output, i.e, broadcasting, streaming and other media either physical or online. I'm pretty sure most people would agree.
  6. That's why they call @leicsmac "The Sphinx".
  7. So long as you're not watching it live (does anyone?) you can watch any non-BBC TV channel without a TV licence.
  8. It always amazes me the people who moan about paying £174.50 a year for a licence often pay £80+ a month to watch a few football matches a month... On channels that have adverts!
  9. You see, this is the kind of informative, essential and ground-breaking narrative that the BBC so frequently choses to leave the British public in ignorance of
  10. Auntie BBC smegma
  11. 4' 33 by John Cage
  12. So... you're not holding out much hope for the BBC?
  13. Ironically, Aiyawatt used to say that to Vichai.
  14. They will be getting a football club for a rock bottom price. KP will want a decent wodge.
  15. Pilate's statement though is indicative of his awareness that personal belief is often held as truth, which he was acknowledging, which in itself is a truth. It was an expression that, regardless of the actual truth of the allegations presented to him, he wouldn't be able to dissuade the belief of the baying masses.
  16. To quote Pilate, "What is truth?"
  17. You wanted an answer
  18. Of course it's a desirous outcome. It's such a chore deciding which news outlet is telling the truth. Having one beautiful and gloriously unquestionable source of news will remove us all from the burden of informed decision. Add to that the source of news, a messianic figure whose knowledge surpasses all understanding*, and truly all if the world's ailments will come to an end. *I think this is inarguable
  19. Diminished yes; gone no. Otherwise why would there be several posters here defending the BBC? Absolutes are incredibly rare.
  20. They should be punished. Should they be put out of business? Should license payers pay for it? $1bn is ridiculous. The BBC wouldn't survive. However, as I've previously stated, Trump usually settles for much less. Bring it on, I'd say and then counter-sue. You reap what you sow.
  21. It's worth noting that Trump has previous for suing media companies for ridiculous amounts of money and they ultimately were either dismissed completely, or settled for a couple of million or less. It's hard to argue damage to your reputation when your reputation is terrible.
  22. The fact there are no commercial Gaelic channels tells you all you need to know. Not going to make any money broadcasting to Benbecula, Stromness and Dunvegan.
  23. Imo Lenin's communism and Stalin's communism are completely divergent.
  24. Yeah, I'd seen somewhere that Davie had been considering it for a while. This was just the straw on the camel.
