Don't let the so called Land of the Free turn into this:

It never occurred to me that they would. Though sadly I can't afford a new gaming PC. My rig is from 8 or 9 years old. And the GPU was a former mining card that I rescued from ebay, lol. RX 580 8gb, 16gb DDR4 ram, and Ryzen 5 2600. Not bad but it's showing its age with modern games. Also does not have RTX so some won't even run like Indiana Jones. Only way to play is by streaming services. Lately been using GFN to play KCD2 and it's actually quite good even on WiFi. Just playing it on my laptop and only occassional stuttering. Though granted I am only in the tutorial level and have not had many big battles yet. I have also tried Enshrouded and Medieval Dynasty and they work ok though it does stutter a bit.
We don't use dollars in the UK
Well the BBC is technically forcing us to watch it. Many people don't watch TV at all but constantly receive threatening letters complaigning that we are not paying for a TV License that we don't use. They want every single household to have a TV and a license even if we don't watch the BBC. So that is a big problem with a forced narrative from the BBC. I do agree that they do a lot of things well but it's often too little too late. However, my main issue is not the quality of state controlled media or the ethical problems with that but rather the fact that they keep forcing us to pay for it. Even if we don't use it.
That is interesting. I like that they used YouTube channels. I feel like TV is sadly a dying platform though I do hate the day that TV and Cinema die. Unfortunately it only happens cause TV License people dug their own grave. Also, there is not enough new stuff to watch on TV with every streaming service putting out so many platforms to watch on. Though maybe I am being too cynnical and I apolagize.
BBC being funded is good but state controlled media is very bad. BBC is highly regulated and controlled by the crown and the British gov. How they push the TV License is very invasive and offputting to the point of harassment and threats. Surely there has to be a better way to do this. They should try to make people want a license not claiming that we HAVE to have it. That's all I am trying to say.
Maybe they should stop forcing this antiquated TV License scam. For those who don't know, the UK pushes for a TV License to watch Live TV though most people don't watch BBC anymore. Though I bet they will try to find a way to include Netflix and more in the TV License. EDIT: I agree the BBC should be funded though they are not a perfect entity and state controlled media is very bad especially for journalism. I think they are going about advertising the license in the wrong way and there is a lot of evidence of harassment from letters and visits to get a tv license even if you don't have a tv!
Wololo
The irony is that Crunchyroll used to be an illegal streaming site to begin with
