I'd give my left nut to not have to pay a trillion fucking dollars for the right to broadcast a show not full of propaganda on a not state owned fucking TV system.
Though What you say makes sense. Its the socialist way of doing it. Can't say its bad. But its not great either.
I take it anything like PBS is illegal in the UK. I learned a lot from PBS as a kid.

The BBC is chartered by the government and is primarily funded by this fee, as it is a public service network, and was originally created to deliver impartial information to the public, but has obviously expanded into other programming. It is basically the British equivalent of PBS, so why would something like PBS be illegal? It similarly has children's programming. They have plenty of other stations, channel 4 being the second largest there, which is privately owned and has commercials.
