Couldn't there be a fairer system where current free view services are all broadcast on the internet and TV's made to work like internet radios? For people who don't have wi-fi in their homes the channels could still be made available free on mobile networks and received via a dongle that fits in to the tv set itself. This would allow the current free view network to be disbanded for mobile technology to be extended across the whole country. I think free view has always unfair. If you live in range of a full freeviewtransmitter that's ok, but most relay transmitters are only equipped with a handful of services called Freeview lite which makes Freeview a postcode lottery just like Channel 5 was in analogue days.
