Many of the solutions offered in these types of discussions focus on cutting costs rather than addressing why people are cancelling their licence fees.
What value were they getting from it?
It doesn't matter how many channels or radio stations there are but the content on them and the regularity of which people consider it to be of relevance to them. That's not to say that cost-cutting shouldn't be done but even if the BBC are in profit, they can't rest on their laurels and need to establish what drives people away.
Just my opinion but the BBC1 and BBC2 schedules need revamped. Daytime there are shows that are or thereabouts 20 years old that are hardly off our screens because the BBC insists on repeating them. People can get fed up after years of monotony. Prime time is no different. The One Show, Eastenders, Strictly - all long-running. Even something considered relatively new, Call The Midwife, is in its tenth series. There are those who enjoy these programmes but do the BBC allow their audience to age with them?
Where are the shows for younger viewers? It seems that since the CBBC block was taken off BBC1 the BBC want people to watch the channel all day long. That's not how it should work.
