Thread Name: Licensing Bill - How will it work ?
Subject: RE: Licensing Bill - How will it work ?
Well I think we should forget all the b****hit regarding 'it wasn't licensable before' as it's only a few years back that all there was in a pub for example was a 21 inch screen television with a puny little speaker, so of course it wasn't. Things have moved on, and now it's 100 inch mini movie screens and 5.1 surround sound that blasts it out. No - it's because they didn't want to take on the media moguls plain and simple. There can be no good reason for these monster TV's not to be licensed if it is a question of noise or public order, and of course capacity limits. Total and utter popycock!!
